iHEARTMEDIA/HUNTSVILLE, AL began stunting on translator W225AH and WQRV–HD3 as ‘TRASH PANDAS 92.9’ to celebrate the announcement last week of the team name of a new minor league baseball team coming to the area - THE ROCKET CITY TRASH PANDAS, by playing baseball themed music, baseball movie clips and comedy bits.

At 9:29a this morning (9/13), the station launched "ALT 92.9, HUNTSVILLE’S NEW ALTERNATIVE.

SVP ERICH WEST said, ‘HUNTSVILLE has never had an alternative music station, so there was a huge opportunity to fill a hole with a format that’s never been done in the market before. This is a great addition to our already strong cluster and will bolster our commitment for our advertising partners."

PD JOHNNY MAZE added, "iHEART is the leader in this format, and I am totally stoked for Huntsville. Many of ALT 92.9's bands have never had the exposure in this market before and I believe HUNTSVILLE is ready and will totally embrace ALT 92.9."

ALT 92.9 will be commercial free through the rest of SEPTEMBER. You can stream the station at www.alt929huntsville.com and on the iheartradio app.
