SPOKANE, Wash., May 19, 2010 - Spokane's NOW 105.7/KZBD-FM, which flipped formats from Alternative to CHR/Pop on May 18, announced today it will introduce Elvis Duran to its morning drive audience next week. Beginning Monday, May 24, the nationally top-rated Elvis Duran and the Morning Show will air weekdays from 5 - 9 a.m. PT. Each morning, Duran and his on-air crew entertain listeners with up-to-the-minute pop culture and entertainment news, celebrity guests, hit songs, and regular features such as the gossipy "Daily Sleaze," the fashion-forward "Rage Page," and the ever-popular prank, "Phone Tap."

Duran commented, "I'm fired up to be a part of this brand new radio station that Spokane has been begging for."

KZBD-FM Program Director Mike Skot stated, "We couldn't be more excited to air Elvis Duran and the Morning Show on the new NOW 105-7. Elvis and his crew are the best in CHR radio, and it won't be long before they own Spokane!"

Duran's radio career has spanned 30 years. He began hosting his daily radio show on New York's Z100 in April 1996. Since then, the show has enjoyed much success including syndication this past year on about 30 stations nationwide in such markets as Atlanta, Cleveland, Portsmouth, Miami/Ft. Lauderdale, Philadelphia and Tampa Bay.

His connection with his audience comes naturally. He's a person who loves a great movie, book, bottle of wine and restaurant. He also likes watching Grey's Anatomy, Lost, Dexter, Weeds, Nip/Tuck, Deal or No Deal and American Idol. Easily accessible, Duran also regularly chats with fans on Facebook and Twitter.
