“After three spectacular nights of NASH Bash concerts, we are topping off the week by proudly announcing that Kelly Ford, most recently at KYGO/Denver, will be debuting middays on NASH FM 94.7. We are also very happy to promote from within Cumulus — Jesse Addy is moving up from WDVD PM Drive in Detroit to PM Drive at NASH FM 94.7,” said Cumulus Sr. VP Jan Jeffries.
Ford joins NASH FM from Denver where she led the morning show for 20 years. She has won best Major Market Radio Personality three times from the Country Music Awards and once from the Academy of Country Music Awards as well as a prestigious Marconi Award for Excellence from the National Association of Broadcasters.
“After over 20 years in Denver, it’s exciting to start a new chapter of my career in New York, the epicenter of everything. I am thrilled to be part of the historic launch of NASH FM. I am so grateful to be given such an amazing opportunity,” Ford said.
Addy joins NASH FM from Detroit and said, “Hopefully this speechless thing wears off soon or my run at NASH FM will be short-lived! I have a lot of thank you phone calls to make, because it takes a village of PDs and mentors for this to happen. I’m so excited to make America’s busiest afternoon commute a little less stressful on America’s Country Station NASH FM 94.7.”
