Cumulus Media announces that it has re-signed popular Chicagoland radio personality, Ray Stevens, as On-Air Host, Mornings, on Chicago News/Talk station 890 WLS-AM.
Stevens will continue to entertain and inform morning radio audiences on his popular 890 WLS-AM morning program, “The Ray Stevens Show,” and can be heard Monday through Friday from 6:00am-9:00am. Stevens' show debuted last June and has quickly become a morning ritual for Chicago’s passionate talk radio listeners.
Stevens, known on-air as “Ramblin’ Ray Stevens,” is an award-winning News/Talk and Country radio host and television personality. A fixture for many years at Chicago’s US 99/WUSN-FM and 890 WLS-AM, Stevens was honored by the Country Music Association as Major Market Personality of the Year in 2010 and for four consecutive years, was honored as the Country Radio Broadcasters’ Major Market Talent of the Year. Stevens has also been heard nationwide on Westwood One’s Country’s Cutting Edge, and on United Stations’ Serving Your Country.
Stevens received the Semper Fi Award from the U.S. Marines for his work on behalf of U.S. servicemen and women at home and abroad, the highest honor bestowed upon a civilian by the U.S. Marines. He is an avid supporter of PAWS Chicago, 100 Club Chicago, Illinois State Crime Commission, Ronald McDonald House, St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, and the Pediatric Brain Tumor Foundation.
Stephanie Tichenor, Program Director, 890 WLS-AM, said: “Ray has been instrumental in bringing Conservative content to morning drive on the Big 89. His energy, his experience, and his ability to deliver the local lens of the right conversation has been invaluable for our listeners.
