Quad Cities Radio: 97X's Dwyer & Michaels To Be Honored

Townsquare Media's WXLP 96.9 FM 97X Davenport's Dwyer & Michaels has been tapped to receive the 2017 Kraddick Award by last year's recipient, The Ace & TJ Show.

The presentation will take place during Morning Show Boot Camp's 29th annual conference taking place at Atlanta's Grand Hyatt Hotel, Atlanta/Buckhead on Aug. 3 & 4.

"Are you sure you got the right Dwyer & Michaels?" Bill Michaels (R) joked upon being informed of the honor.

"Seriously, Kidd was a friend and an inspiration to us very early in our careers. We're incredibly honored to be recognized with this award," said Michaels.

"To have our names included along with the previous recipients is quite humbling." Ace & TJ's Ace added, "Dwyer and Michaels are a radio show that, in addition to tremendous success in the Quad Cities for many years, has been a incredible asset not only to the people of their market but to radio shows around the country for years.

The Kraddick Award is awarded each year to one show or talent selected solely by the previous year's recipient. Past honorees have included Bert Weiss, The Bert Weiss Show, The Kidd Kraddick Show, and and Ace & TJ in 2016.
