Michael ‘Big Mic’ Buhrman has announced his resignation as Regional Brand Manager for Audacy’s Rhythmic CHR stations.
Buhrman, based at 102.5 KSFM Sacramento where he also hosted afternoons, also was responsible for “KS 107.5” KQKS Denver, “Hot 93.7” WZMX Hartford and “Power 93.5” KDGS Wichita. Buhrman joined KSFM as Program Director in May 2018 and later added oversight of CHR “106.5 The End” KUDL prior to Audacy’s restructuring of the CHR formats to regional management. Prior to moving to Sacramento, Buhrman spent seventeen years at KQKS rising from weekend host to APD/MD. He also programmed “Comedy 103.1” K276FK/KQKS-HD2 during his tenure in Denver.
In a social media post announcing his departure, Buhrman writes, “Sometimes the hardest decisions that hurt the most are still the best decisions. Almost 4 years ago to the day I made THE toughest decision of my life as I left my home of Denver and drove to Sacramento for what became 4 of the most fulfilling and rewarding years of my life. 4 years later… and as my career hits drinking age of 21 years this week from Audacy/Entercom/Lincoln Financial Media/Jefferson Pilot Communications, I made the 2nd hardest decision of my life and I have submitted my letter of resignation earlier this week from Audacy as Regional Brand Manager. My Audacy Sacramento family is SO DAMN amazing…the impact they made on me in 4 years will stick with me forever.” He will be staying with the cluster to assist with their upcoming move to a new studio facility, but intends to relocate back to Denver by the end of July.
