Throwback 99.1 will broadcast the best throwback songs from the 90’s and 2000’s, including songs from artists including Usher, Mariah Carey, Dr. Dre, Nelly, Eminem, and more. The station will also feature local well-known personalities LeeAnn Sommers in Morning Drive and Allen Colon in Afternoon Drive and launches with 10,000 songs in a row commercial free.
