The station said the new format will have hits from the 1980s forward, including such artists as Maroon 5, Matchbox Twenty, Voodoo Dolls, Katy Perry, Madonna, Billy Joel, Sheryl Crow and Adele.
The first five songs played on KC 102.1: Pink’s “Get the Party Started,” Journey’s “Don’t Stop Believin’,” Justin Timberlake’s “Mirrors,” Cyndi Lauper’s “Girls Just Wanna Have Fun” and Bruno Mars’ “Just the Way You Are.”
Promotions director Nikki Vivas said KC 102.1 is “going to be a really upbeat, exciting, very fun station. We see the demand for it.”

In a statement, Wilks Broadcasting owner and CEO Jeff Wilks said: “KC 102.1 is familiar music that is upbeat and delivers a format that Kansas Citians have been asking for. Since the departure of two adult contemporary stations back in 2011” — that would be Star 102 and KUDL, 98.1 FM — “Kansas City has had a hole for this format, and we are excited to relaunch this brand.”
Wilks also owns hits station KMXV Mix 93.3 and country stations KFKF 94.1 AND KBEQ Q-104.
