Twin Cities Radio: Keri Noble EXITING KTCZ-FM

KTCZ Cities 97.1 morning host Keri Noble has announced that she is leaving the iHeartMedia FM station and the profession to dedicate more time to another music-related passion in her life.

In a note she posted on the contemporary rock station's web page, Noble said "something's gotta give," so she will focus solely on being a voice instructor for the dozens of aspiring singers she has been teaching.

"A little over three years ago, a family reached out to me about giving their daughter voice lessons," wrote Noble, a recording artist in her own right in the Twin Cities who is married to former Minnesota Viking and fellow radio personality Mike Morris. "At first I said no, but after meeting the little girl, agreed to take on the challenge.

"Fast-forward to present day. I work with more than 40 singers of varying ages and skill levels. ... When you get up at 3:30 a.m., teach all day, and try to work in some concerts of your own, that doesn't leave much room to breathe."

According to the Star-Tribune, Noble's announcement did not say when her last day on the air would be. The station has yet to reveal who will take over that time slot.

Noble went from co-host to a solo gig when the station announced a rebranding in August that sent her on-air partner, Greg Thunder, packing.
