CA Radio: KRUZ Calls Return, KVYB Relaunches


Cumulus Media announces that it has brought the legendary KRUZ 103.3 call letters back to California’s Central Coast with the launch of Classic Hits radio station KRUZ 103.3. Concurrently, Classic Hip Hop station KVYB 103.3 The Vibe signed off in the Santa Barbara market and debuted in the Oxnard market as CHR formatted 106.3 The Vibe, Oxnard’s Hit Music Station.

Sommer Frisk, Regional Vice President/Marker Manager, Cumulus Oxnard/Ventura, said: “Everything good takes time. And, after more than a decade, it’s time we bring KRUZ 103.3 FM back to the Central Coast! It’s also the right time to move 106.3 The Vibe to Oxnard to give the fans what they’ve been begging for. With the combination of KRUZ 103.3’s powerful signal, along with the synergy of its legendary sister brand 106.3 The Vibe, we will provide new and exciting ways for our listeners and marketing partners to engage with the fans up and down the Central Coast. We could not be happier to welcome Brandon Young to our superstar programming team headed by Operations Manager, Justin Taylor. This duo is unstoppable and are ideal for this huge project.”


Justin Taylor, Operations Manager, Cumulus Oxnard/Ventura, commented: “It's been really exciting to put together and build the stations that people all along the coast are going to absolutely LOVE!! From the great programming to the dynamic on-air personalities, these are going to be stations that people will be talking about.”

Brandon Young, Program Director, KRUZ and KVYB, added: “I am absolutely thrilled to join the amazing Oxnard/Ventura, Santa Barbara team of Cumulus Media! I have no doubt that we will take KRUZ 103.3 and 106.3 The Vibe to incredible new heights. Sommer Frisk and Justin Taylor, thank you for this tremendous opportunity.”
