https://radioinsight.com/wp-content/images/2023/10/fantone-200x124.jpgAlpha Media Hot AC “Mix 94.1 (https://www.mix941.com)” WHBC-FM Canton OH will debut “Mix Mornings with Matt Fantone” on Monday, October 9.
Fantone moves up to mornings from middays where he has spent the past year and a half since joining the station in April 2022. He previously served as co-host of “The Stansbury Show” on iHeartMedia’s “Rock 106.9 (https://wrqk.iheart.com)” WRQK.
Fantone takes the morning slot that had most recently been held by the WNCI Columbus based Dave & Jimmy Show until the end of their syndication (https://radioinsight.com/headlines/259438/dave-jimmy-depart-syndication/) at the end of September. Remote tracker Marissa Lanchak (https://www.facebook.com/marissaontheradio) has taken over the midday slot.
Mix 94-1/WHBC-FM is proud to announce the debut of our brand-new morning show, Mix Mornings with Matt Fantone.
Fantone was previously heard as Mix 94-1?s ?at work/midday? personality from April 2022 to September 2023. Fantone is no stranger to morning drive in the Hall Of Fame City. For many years, he was heard doing mornings at crosstown rival Rock 106.9.
The new show will be live and locally-based, with an emphasis on all things Canton and Stark County. Local news, weather, sports information, contests, guests and a mix of current and recent pop hits. The show replaces the long-running Dave & Jimmy show, based out of Columbus, which is no longer available via syndication.
?It?s been over 5 years since Mix 94-1 was live and local in morning drive?, said Joel Murphy, Program Director/Afternoon Personality of Mix 94-1. ?Matt is well known and well liked in the community. The show will be super-interactive with live calls, texts, video & social media engagement. All originating from the historic WHBC Building in Downtown Canton. It?s a show that promises to live, breathe and, most importantly, sound like Canton, hosted by one of its very own.?
?Ever since I moved to Canton, I’ve always loved this area and 10 years later, I am so excited, proud and humbled to be hosting this morning show?, said Matt Fantone. ?Sincere thanks go to ?Java? Joel Murphy, Pam Cook, Larry Gawthrop and Clay Church for believing in me. Shout out to my wife who now has to wrangle our young kids through the mornings all by herself. Most importantly, thank you to everyone in my corner. For a decade, this market has given me nothing but love and I can’t wait to give it back.?
Mix Mornings with Matt Fantone premieres Monday October 9th on Mix 94-1/WHBC-FM.
