iHeartMedia Salt Lake City is welcoming a new morning show, E.White & Erica In The Morning, on the cluster’s CHR 97.1 ZHT (KZHT) beginning Monday, August 7.
E. White, previously with KDWB in Minneapolis, started his career in 2017 in Philadelphia before moving to Des Moines for afternoon slots. Co-host Erica Shea, formerly of KHTS in San Diego and producer for On Air With Ryan Seacrest in Los Angeles, began her career in high school as a board operator in San Jose.
iHeartMedia Salt Lake City Market President Judy Copier said, “This is an exciting day for morning radio and especially for 97.1 ZHT. E. White and Erica bring an enthusiasm for live, local radio that is contagious and endearing. An open book is what you’ll find with these two as they share pretty much everything happening around them. I’m sure listeners will be entertained as they discover and embrace their new radio broadcast home in Utah.”
Shea stated, “It’s not every day you get to see your dreams since you were 12 years old become a reality, hosting a morning show has always been mine. I can’t wait to get started with E. White and the incredible team at iHeart Salt Lake City! I am beyond grateful to Jeff and Judy for this opportunity, as well as the mentors, co-workers and listeners who have been so supportive along the way. I am so excited to make early mornings something listeners look forward to and to dive headfirst into the Salt Lake City community!”
E. White added, “Hosting a morning show has been my dream since I cracked a mic on my college radio station in 2014, so to see it come to fruition is absolutely surreal. To Jeff, Judy and the people who have trained and mentored us to where we are today: thankful is a massive understatement. Salt Lake City is such an incredible spot, and I’m excited to be part of the fabric of this community!”
