Albuquerque Radio: Cumulus Flips 94.5 FM To Rock

CUMULUS MEDIA announces that it has launched a new Rock station in Albuquerque, NM, today.

KTBL 1050 AM / 94.5 FM The Pit, Albuquerque’s New Choice for Rock, went live at 9:00am ET with its first cut, Metallica’s “Master of Puppets”.

KTBL was previously programmed as Talk Business Life.

With the change in format, KTBL now also broadcasts on the K233CG 94.5 FM translator formerly used by News Radio KKOB.

Jeff Berry, Vice President/Market Manager, Cumulus Albuquerque, said: “We are thrilled to provide ABQ and the surrounding areas with an exciting new Rock station. The Pit will provide fans with current Rock artists like Shinedown and Disturbed, laced with 90’s and 2000’s mega bands such as Metallica and Foo Fighters. It will be a game changer for ABQ rock fanatics and our clients.”

Kris Abrams, FM Operations Manager, Cumulus Albuquerque, said: “There are a lot of great radio stations in Albuquerque. But radio listeners have been vocal that there is a need for a station that not only plays iconic Rock songs but also mixes that with a lot of new music discovery. 94.5 The Pit does exactly that.”
