Bristol Broadcasting launched 105.3 The Beat on Friday, 5/26. The Tri-Cities new Rhythmic/CHR station will join sister outlets Electric 94 9 (CHR) and 99 3 The X (ALT), all three of which are programmed by Jason Reed. Reed told FMQB, “The Beat is a great addition to our cluster of contemporary music stations in the Tri-Cities area, and with Electric leaning a little toward the Adult/Top 40 side, I think this complement will work out pretty well for us.”
