Audacy Rhythmic AC “Star 94” WSTR Atlanta has announced the addition of Brian Moote as afternoon host.

Moote most recently hosted mornings at iHeartMedia Country “94.9 The Bull” WUBL Atlanta from May 2022 until March 2024. He has also worked in the market as part of the syndicated Bert Show at Cumulus’ “Q99.7” WWWQ from 2016 to 2018. Moote has also held roles on morning shows at KLCK Seattle, KAMP Los Angeles, and KPLX Dallas in addition to being a touring stand-up comedian.

He commented, “I am beyond excited to join the team at Star 94 and Audacy and be part of the creative and fun, listener-focused environment they have built. Huge thanks to Emily Boldon and Rick Caffey for bringing me on board to launch a new afternoon show that will provide the audience with a content-driven and interactive experience for their ride home, something afternoon radio has been missing in Atlanta for a long time.”

WSTR Brand Manager Emily Boldon said, “I have followed Moote’s impressive career for many years and knew that he would be a fantastic addition to our on-air team as we build Star 94’s exciting future. Moote is hilariously funny, relatable, and intrinsically tied to the Atlanta community. Audacy Atlanta and Star 94 are fortunate to have him come aboard.”

Afternoons at WSTR have been jockless since the exit of Kannon during the company’s layoffs in March.
