Kevin Can't Wait:
Former Beasley WKLB/Boston afternoon personality Kevin Kennedy is joining Cumulus WDRQ/Detroit for middays. He replaces Rachel Ryan, who has been voicetracking the shift from Country sister KSCS/Dallas since May (CAT 5/25). “Kevin is a massive talent, and we are lucky to have him,” says PD David Corey. The move reunites Kennedy and Corey, who worked together during their tenures in Boston. Kennedy left WKLB in 2019 after four years to be closer to family (CAT 5/22/19). His prior stops include Urban Contemporary WMOV/Norfolk; Hot AC KVDU/New Orleans; and Top 40 KIIS/Los Angeles, WSTR/Atlanta, WIOQ/Philadelphia and KDWB/Minneapolis. Reach him here.
