As reported Wednesday by Radio Ink:

Radio Ink has learned that following the expiration of his contract with Clear Channel's Hit Music Station 97.3 Radio NOW in Milwaukee, "Riggs" will be joining cross-town rival KISS-FM (WXSS-FM), owned by Entercom, where he'll join the morning team. Riggs hosted Riggs' Random Radio Show Monday through Saturday for Clear Channel. Riggs replaces the exiting Rahny Taylor and joins Wes McKane and Alley Faith.

Entercom Milwaukee Vice President of Operations Brian Kelly said, “We couldn’t be more excited to add Riggs to the KISS morning lineup here in Milwaukee. The market loves this guy and he’s been a fierce competitor. Adding him to our team is the icing on an already awesome cake. I can’t wait to hear him on Milwaukee’s #1 Hit Music Station.”

Prior to PM Driver duties in Milwaukee, Riggs has done tours in Indianapolis, Chattanooga, and Gainesville, Florida. “I am totally stoked to be part of the KISS brand in Milwaukee,” said Riggs. “Wes and Alley are at the top of their game and I can’t wait to join them in the studio.

Riggs will begin his new gig Monday morning August 19.

Presumably, this will also affect Mix 105.1 in Madison... unless Entercom Madison has other plans for their own morning slot. (Nah, they probably don't.)
