KISS KREW
Listen it's Liz
Liz was born and raised in Utica, NY. Growing up in Utica meant that Kiss FM was on ALL the time. After attending SUNY Polytechnic Institute she was offered up her dream job to be on the Kiss Morning Show. She spends way too much time on the Internet, staying up-to-date with the latest news and trends. You can usually find her with her camera in her hand, documenting everything in vlog form. She’s a cat mom and wouldn’t have her life any other way. Just your typical twenty-something girl learning how to adult every day and sharing her stories with you every morning on Kiss FM.

Brandon C.
Brandon C.’s 411: Crazy to think I have been in this business since I was 18. In that time I had the opportunity to start my career at the same radio station I grew up listening to in my hometown of Syracuse at 93Q. Held down the Night Show there for a few years before ending up doing afternoon drive at crosstown station MOViN 100.3/96.5. “Good luck” is what happens when hard work meets opportunity and I like to think I was hit with a bit of “good luck” when I received an offer to become a member of the KISS Krew.
Radio and music is all I know and I am grateful to be able to do what I love here in Utica and share it with YOU every afternoon!
Check me out every weekday from 2-6PM as I share with you my take on this crazy world we live in!
What Up Radio

Dave Wheeler
I’ve grown up in Central New York my entire life, which explains why I’ve somehow been on just about every spot on the radio dial or restaurant line. I’m a Westmoreland High School grad (Class of 2009) and now live in New Hartford with my wife Sarah.
Our house is lovingly chaotic, but louder: two dogs (Harper and Moxie), two cats (Cesar and Milo), and four kids. FOUR. So yes, I’ve mastered the art of multitasking, selective hearing, and surviving on diet soda and coffee.
When I’m not on the air, I’m also a local psychic……because apparently talking about the future was the next logical step. You can find me online as Dave The Seer, The Psychic DJ, predicting the future and still somehow forgetting to grab lettuce or soap at the store.
Kiss Night Show
Monday – Friday: 7:00pm – 12:00am
Kenny The Promo Guy
I grew up in the 315. Lived in Utica til 8th grade then moved to the Holland Patent area. Got my radio name as I was the promotions director for KISS and a few other radio stations back in the day.
Now I KISS it on the weekends and work at MVCC during the week. I live in Camden with my wife and two boys: DJ Owen and Evan The Promo Kid. You can hear me on KISS usually Saturday and Sunday afternoons. Drop a line anytime!

Hoffman
It was with deep regret that Shaun Andrews halted the demo of the old Kiss studios, and the construction workers called in a paleontologist. With a few strokes of a brush and a sly grin, the scientist shouted “It’s just an old radio career… but what’s the deal with this Cavasier bottle?”.
Hoffman’s a “veteran part-time jock” in Utica/Rome, dating back to 1993. He somehow graduated from SUNY Herkimer and SUNY Poly. He’s even broken into other larger radio markets, and just like the other personalities, was eventually fired from those markets too!
For some reason in Hoffman’s mind, he came out of radio retirement. To him, KISS-FM is like the mafia… “Once I think I’m out, they pull me back in”… He’s a girl Dad now, with a wife and 3 daughters. Please pray for him.

DJ Grooves
Pat “DJ Grooves” Cerullo traces his career in broadcasting back to the summer of 1996. Before he was old enough to get a drivers license he was spending his weekends volunteering at a small college radio station in Easton, PA.
He moved across the country to pursue his radio career with on air and programming positions in State College PA, Lexington KY, Washington DC, Detroit MI, Philadelphia PA, and San Antonio TX.
While working full time Grooves simultaneously cultivated and grew his nationally syndicated mixshow “The Loud Mix”. It can be heard on 60 stations nationwide.
