iHEARTMEDIA Country WEBG (BIG 95.5)/CHICAGO has added iHEARTMEDIA nationally syndicated "THE BOBBY BONES SHOW" for mornings, beginning MONDAY, AUGUST 13th. BONES fills the vacancy created in APRIL with the departure of MASON AND REMY (NET NEWS 4/10); WEBG personality ALABAMA has been hosting wakeups on an interim basis since then. PD LANCE HOUSTON tells ALL ACCESS that ALABAMA will continue in mornings between 7a-9a (CT), intergrating local breaks on the show, then host her own midday show from 9a-12n (CT).
"Welcome to BIG 95.5 mornings, BOBBY BONES," shared iHEARTMEDIA/CHICAGO Region Pres. MATT SCARANO. "We are excited to add the most recognizable name in Country radio to our morning lineup." Added HOUSTON, "'THE BOBBY BONES SHOW' really connects with the core Country audience more than any other show that I have ever seen throughout my career. I am truly confident that BOBBY BONES and team will be an entertaining morning show for our one million-plus weekly Country radio audience in CHICAGOLAND, introducing them to popular features like 'Tell Me Something Good' and 'Pimpin' Joy.'"
