“We are tremendously proud to have Dan join our already amazing, first-in-class digital content team in Tri-Cities.

This is a huge win for us and we’re very excited to have him join the team,” said Paul Drake, Townsquare Tri-Cities Director of Content.
“I’m excited to join 97.5 KISS FM and Townsquare, who I believe are doing it right; hyper-local radio and hyper- local digital content that can’t be found anywhere else,” added Dan. “We’re going to have a blast together, which is dangerous since we’re so close to a nuclear facility.”
