David Reese’s NRG Media has ceased programming his Dance “100.9 NRG” programming on CRC Media West’s 100.9 K265FH Cathedral City/Palm Springs and Marker Broadcasting’s 95.9 KJJZ-HD4 Indian Wells CA.
A message on the station’s website notes, “To our listeners, thank you for support & your kind words. To our sponsors, thank you for believing in the new station in town.” The station is continuing online “for now”.
The brand had launched on those signals in August 2022 with Reese hosting “Disco in the Morning with David” in mornings from 7-10am. He also operated the similarly formatted “93.7 NRG” on WKEY-FM Key West FL from April 2021 to October 2022. Prior to launching the brand in Key West, Reese spent most of his career in television news including serving as as Assistant News Director at “Fox 11” KTTV Los Angeles.
When it launched, K265FH/KJJZ-HD4 was one of three Dance stations in the Palm Springs market. Following the subsequent sale and flip of Audacy’s “Channel Q” 103.1 KQPS Palm Desert earlier this year, only KGAY PSP’s LGBTQ+ “106.5 KGAY” 1270 KGAY/106.5 K293CL Thousand Palms remains.
