Amber Parker has been named Senior VP/Programming for iHeartMedia’s 4-station cluster in Tuscaloosa, AL.

In addition to her new post, she’ll handle middays on Country WTXT 98.1 FM, weekdays from 10am-3pm. Parker joins the Tuscaloosa market from iHM/Colorado Springs, where she most recently served an air personality for Y96.9. She also handled PD duties for 96.1 The Beat in Colorado Springs, and was night host for Big 97.9 Fort Collins, CO. She began her career at Cromwell Radio Group in Mattoon, IL.

“We’re pumped to have Amber on our iHeart Team in T-Town,” said iHeartMedia/Birmingham Area Senior VP/Programming Tom Hanrahan.. Amber is passionate about Country music, incredibly creative and truly connects and engages with her listeners on-air and through social platforms almost 24 hours a day — I’m not sure she has an off button.”

“In Tuscaloosa, Nick Saban, University of Alabama Head Football Coach, teaches that there is a process necessary for success,” added iHeartMedia Tuscaloosa Market President John Malone. “It involves having a winning plan, incredible focus, dedication and hard work. Amber possesses all of these qualities and will take our stations to the next level. She has already inspired our iHeart Tuscaloosa team and I’m thrilled to have her leading our programming efforts.”

“I’m so thrilled to join the iHeart Tuscaloosa team,” said Parker. I am ready to hit the ground running to bring creative programming and digital content to T-Town. Plan on seeing a lot of me! I intend to bring more of Nashville to Alabama. Roll Tide!”
