Educational Media Foundation Christian AC “K-Love” has announced the addition of Lauree Austin as midday host.
Austin, who will air from 12-4pm eastern/9am-1pm pacific, joins EMF from co-hosting afternoons at 90.9 KCBI-FM Dallas. She joined KCBI in September 2017 from Christian marketing firm i58:10 Media. She also currently tracks middays for Christian CHR “NGen Radio” 91.7 KXNG Houston and previously tracked mornings from 2018-2020 for “Project 88.7” KOAY Boise.
The Oregon native will be based at EMF’s new headquarters in Franklin TN.
K-LOVE, the nation’s largest non-commercial contemporary Christian radio network, is expanding its on-air lineup to include Lauree Austin as mid-day host beginning in June 2021.
Lauree will round out the K-LOVE DJ roster, joining Skip & Amy, Scott & Kelli, Randi, Monika, and Alex, sharing positive and encouraging music and messages, broadcast in all 50 states and streaming worldwide.
Prior to joining K-LOVE, Lauree was on Afternoons with Lauree & Doug on KCBI FM serving the Dallas-Ft. Worth community.
“I am beyond excited to join the K-LOVE team!” Lauree said. “Isn’t that totally God, to take this girl off the foreign mission field and put her behind the mic to continue to share the good news all over this country and around the world?!”
K-LOVE Program Director Mandy Young is glad to bring Lauree on board. “Audiences really connect with Lauree and her transparency, humility, humor, genuine conversations and thought-provoking questions,” Mandy said. “We know our listeners will love her, and our internal team is thrilled to start working with her as well.”
Lauree will work out of the K-LOVE studio in Franklin, Tenn.
