The new station is an eclectic format known as Adult Album Alternative (AAA) and features "world class rock" spanning four decades of music including artists such as Dave Matthews Band, The Beatles, Fitz & The Tantrums, and other similar artists.

On-air the station is branded as The Peak, and is similar to a station the company operates in Poughkeepsie.
