I'll Be Quirky:
Futuri Dir./Partner Integration Kris Abrams will join Cumulus/Albuquerque as OM for the five-station cluster, which includes Country KRST & KBZU. Abrams will handle day-to-day programming for the two Country outlets as well as AC KDRF. It is a return to the position for Abrams, who handled OM/PD duties there from 2013-2016 (CAT 3/17/16). He succeeds Brad Hansen, who joined Townsquare/Ft. Collins, CO in December (CAT 12/3). "[Kris] has a strong history with and passion for these stations, our company and Albuquerque," says VP/MM Jeff Berry. Reach Abrams here.
