Griffin Communications announced that Mel Myers has joined the team at 92.9 The Drive/KBEZ.
KBEZ Programming Director Dave “Wavy Davy” Michaels says Myers brings a rich background in radio and a real passion for music to KBEZ and that he has had a proven track record of success at several Tulsa radio stations
“It’s a pleasure to once again team up with my longtime friend Wavy Davy,” said Mel Myers. “Since he became Program Director at 92.9 The Drive, his familiarity with the people of Tulsa and the music they love enabled him to fine tune the station to be right on target. I’m glad to jump onboard with the Griffin Communications team and help increase The Drive’s successful momentum.”
Myers will be playing Tulsa’s Classic Hits every Monday-Saturday from 6-10 a.m.
“We couldn’t be happier to have Mel Myers on the team,” said Steve Hunter, Director of Radio Operations & Programming. “Mel has been part of so many legendary radio stations over his career. Reuniting him with Jeanne and Wavy Davy is like getting the band back together. I know that Tulsa will enjoy waking up with MEL IN THE MORNING on 92.9 The Drive.”
