Cox Media Group’s Magic 94.9 in Tampa is adding a familiar voice to its on-air lineup, announcing Alexia Gonzalez as the station’s new midday host.
Gonzalez brings a versatile media background to the Hot AC brand. She most recently served as a personality at SBS’s El Zol 97.1. Her career includes time on-camera with SBS’s Mega-TV and the Home Shopping Network. As well as experience as the owner of her own marketing agency, The Gaia Group.
For Gonzalez, the move to Magic 94.9 represents more than a career change. It’s a homecoming to the medium that shaped her life.
“Can’t tell you the excitement I feel getting back to my radio roots as radio has always been in my DNA,” Gonzalez said on LinkedIn. “Growing up with both of my parents in the radio industry. Some of my earliest memories were hanging out in DJ booths, backstage at concerts, recording commercials, and singing jingles before I even hit my teens. By 12, I was working in Spanish radio and made my way to television hosting and acting.”
Gonzalez joins a station known for its upbeat blend of contemporary hits and personality-driven radio. Magic 94.9 has long positioned itself as a listener-friendly brand. Connecting with its audience through music, lifestyle content, and relatable hosts.
“I can’t tell you how PUMPED I am for this next chapter. Being on air every day in St. Pete and Tampa Bay is truly a dream come true,” wrote Gonzalez. “Can’t wait to see you at our Magic 94.9 events & concerts and I hope you’ll tune in and hang with me on-air daily! Here’s to a new season, new energy, and so much more magic.”
