On January 30th of this year staff found out KG95 was going to be inducted in to the Iowa Rock 'n Roll Hall of Fame in 2025!
Labor day weekend festivities are to be held in Okoboji honoring the 2025 Inductees and KG95's Rob Powers will be on hand to accept the honor on behalf of the radio station.
KGLI started life on 95.5 FM as KBCM in 1974 and in 1983, it became the much-loved KG95, offering Top 40 hits with popular on-air talent. Many talented individauls graced KG95 over the years including the likes of the late Mark Hahn (mornings), Rita Bettin, Paul Fredricks, Duke Williams, Paul Davis, Donnie Roberts (middays), Rick Elliott, Denny Anderson, Doug Collins, Rick Allen (afternoons), Matt Thombstone, Glenn Miller, Bart Mccoy, BJ Bradley, Rob Powers and many others.
Over time, KG95 has adjusted its sound to stay true to listeners who grew up listening to the station over the years. KG95 was a top 40 before leaning Hot AC in 2006, then settled into its current Adult Contemporary format by 2009.
KG95 puts the community first with many events over the years. Most notable is our annual Easter Egg Hunt held at GrandView Park every spring. We took a look back and think it started sometime in the early 90's! With over 20,000 eggs on average year to year, its a great family fun event for folks to come out and enjoy!
For over 25 years KG95 helped raise awareness and dollars to help local families involved with the Children's Miracle Network.
Every Year KG95 plays all of your FAVORITE CHRISTMAS SONGS during the Holiday season!! ho ho ho
So many community events to date and we look forward to continuing to promote events all throughout Siouxland moving forward!
and who remembers our KG95 Boom box? If ya know.. ya know!!
Our #1 goal is, and will continue to be, to support our community here in Siouxland and we are so proud to be recognized by the Iowa Rock 'n Roll Hall of Fame!
