Cumulus Media Chicago has named Todd Cavanah as the new Program Director for 94.7 WLS-FM. Before joining Cumulus, Cavanah previously served in key positions at Audacy Chicago’s B96 (WBBM). He has worked in the Windy City’s radio scene since 1987.
After leaving Audacy in April, Cavanah was replaced by Molly Cruz as WBBM’s Brand Manager.
Cumulus Chicago Market Manager Marv Nyren said, “Having an experienced and talented Program Director like Todd Cavanah join 94.7 WLS-FM and the Cumulus Chicago team is a perfect fit. Todd’s track record of success in Chicago is second to none and his presence is already being felt in the hallways. Todd’s impact with our amazing on-air talent and entire station positions us for success for years to come.”
Cavanah commented, “It is an honor to Program the legendary WLS-FM in the city that I have called home since 1987. When I first spoke to Marv Nyren and Brian Phillips about this job, I knew Cumulus and 94.7 were a perfect fit for me. Their support for this amazing brand is refreshing and I look forward to elevating WLS-FM and taking these call letters to the top of the ratings.”
