New Night Jock at US99

From this morning's RAMP Newsletter...

RAMP has learned that Kimmie Caruba has exited her evening on-air position at Entercom Country WUSN (US 99)/Chicago after nearly three years, the result of corporate restructuring.

We have also confirmed that US 99 APD/MD Marci Braun will now annex the care and feeding of the US99 night show. A staff memo from PD Kenny Jay read, in part, "I'm excited that our very own Marci Braun will step into the evening on-air position at US99. She brings unmatched knowledge of the music, artists and Chicago to the table every day and now we will share it with our listeners on a consistent basis."

Caruba returned to her hometown of Chicago in Sept. 2016 to do nights on US99, earning the transfer and serious market bump up from then CBS Radio Phoenix, where she did nights on Country cousin KMLE and middays on Top 40 KALV (Live 101.5). Earlier career stops include Burlington, VT and Syracuse, NY. Caruba began her radio career at iHeartMedia Top 40 WKSC (Kiss FM)/Chicago interning for Fred & Angi twice.

"I had a dream of doing radio in my hometown & I still can’t believe that I actually lived that dream the past few years," Caruba tells RAMP. "I'm excited for the possibilities of what could come next!"
