KMLE Country Phoenix has appointed Niko Petrou as the new host of its morning show. Joining forces with Cheyenne Davis, the duo will launch their show, “Niko & Cheyenne,” which will air weekdays from 6 – 10 am starting January 15.
In addition to this new role, Petrou will continue to host “The Niko Show” on sister station BIG 94.5 KOOL-FM, airing weekdays from 2 to 7 pm.
“We’re thrilled to bring Niko back to KMLE Country 107.9’s morning show. Niko and Cheyenne have built a great rapport with the local community, and connecting with listeners is at the core of what they do,” said Dave Pugh, Senior Vice President and Market Manager Audacy Phoenix. “With the duo’s love for Phoenix and enthusiastic nature, we can’t wait to see how the morning show evolves.”
“I’ve always felt that KMLE Nation and I had some unfinished business, and now I can’t wait to team up with superhero Cheyenne and producer Abe Maney,” said Petrou. “I can’t wait to spread the KMLE love throughout the best city in the world. Grab a hump and hang on!”
Petrou is a 20-year radio veteran who first joined the Company in 2018 as a co-host of the KMLE Country morning show.
Davis joined KMLE Country 107.9 in December 2019 as a morning show co-host. She began her radio career in 2018 at KDBL-FM in Yakima, WA, where she co-hosted the morning show.
