Former Audacy Alternative “FM 101.9” WQMP Daytona Beach/Orlando APD/MD/midday host Melissa ‘Mel’ Holden has returned to the station as midday host.
She reclaims the midday shift from 106.7 KROQ Los Angeles midday host Nicole Alvarez.
Mel began her career at Alternative “103.1 The Buzz” WPBZ West Palm Beach where she served as Promotions Director and programming assistant. She joined WSFS in 2015 as Music Coordinator and host before moving to WQMP in August 2018 as MD/midday host before adding APD duties the following month. When Audacy restructured their Alternative stations in September 2020, she moved to middays at Classic Hits “105.9 Sunny-FM” WOCL until exiting in July 2021.
Note: An early version of this story noted that Mel was also heard on “104.3 The Shark” WSFS Miramar/Miami. That came from an error on the station’s schedule that has been resolved. Nicole Alvarez continues in middays on WSFS.
