Bright Future For The House Foundation
Nashville’s WSIX has hired personality Katie Bright to become the newest member of The House Foundation, beginning April 1. Bright was most recently morning co-host (with George House) on Marconi Award winner and MusicRow Reporter WAXX/Eau Claire, Wisconsin. During her last 18 months with WAXX, she was based in Nashville. Bright is the first addition to the team since newsman Al Voecks and sportscaster Duncan Stewart departed in December.
“Katie brings a totally new perspective to the show,” says WSIX PD Keith Kaufman. “It will be intriguing. I’m very excited about what the future has in store. This ought to be fun.”
“Joining WSIX and The House Foundation is a dream come true for me,” says Bright. ” I’ve been following Gerry’s show for years and have always wondered what it would sound like to have a chick on the show…now, I’m the chick! It’ll be a blast to join the Boys’ Club at WSIX. I can’t wait to get there…until then you can find me on top of Love Circle jumping for joy!”
“Katie is engaging, attractive, and funny,” adds Gerry House. “As far as I can recall, none of those things have been a part of this show before. Listeners will be thrilled.”
Listeners can hear The House Foundation 6-10 am weekday mornings in Nashville or online at www.wsix.com.

So they can’t afford Duncan and Al, but they can afford to bring in someone new. Is it just me or does anyone else smell something fishy here?
Katie will make a GREAT addition to any station! She is amazing and so fun to listen to!!! Maybe they just knew who they wanted 🙂
Katie will knock it out of the park. She’s hysterical. Gerry and the boys need the balance; they’re getting a little long in the tooth!
Give Katie a chance and Gerry and Mike and the others a break! It wasn’t their fault that the “impressive” management made some stupid mistakes.
I agree. Katie is as talented as she is adorable. She’ll be a great addition to the market.
This young woman has years of on-air experience! I’ve got years of phone bills to prove it.
