Cumulus Media has added Cody Clark as APD/afternoon host of Country 92.3 KRST and Program Director of Variety Hits “103.3 eD-FM” KDRF Albuquerque.
Clark fills the opening on KRST’s lineup created by the July passing of Juan Velasco and retirement of Eddie Haskell at the end of August. With his addition, KRST Program Director Bev Rainey will move to middays from 10am-2pm. Megan Marie, who had been filling in middays, moved to mornings at AC “Magic 99.5” KMGA yesterday.
Clark has most recently served as Senior Newscast Director for KCNV-TV Las Vegas. He previously programmed webcaster Country AF Radio, was OM/PD for First Media Radio’s cluster in Roanoke Rapids and Rocky Mount NC, Production Director for Cumulus Fayetteville NC, and MD/night host at Curtis Media Country 94.7 WQDR Raleigh.
Rainey said, “We are thrilled to welcome Cody to the KRST team. The combination of his passion for Country music, his unique talent for connecting with listeners, and his extensive experience in the industry, make him a perfect fit for Albuquerque’s much-loved Country brand.”
Clark commented, “I’m very excited to be working in Country radio again, and especially on the legendary KRST. I appreciate the chance to work with such a strong female programmer like Bev Rainey and thank her, VP/Market Manager Jeff Berry, and SVP, Programming Operations, John Dimick for this great opportunity.”
