KZOZ (93.3 MHz) is a commercial FM radio station that is licensed to and serves San Luis Obispo, California. The station is owned by American General Media and broadcasts a classic rock format.

History

The station's first license was granted in 1962 to John C. Cohan with the call letters KVEC-FM.[1][2] In November 1965, Cohen sold KVEC-FM and its AM counterpart to West Coast Broadcasters Inc. for $360,000.[3] The new owner then changed the FM station's call sign to KSBY-FM.

In June 1975, KSBY-FM changed its call sign to KZOZ.[4] At the time, the station was branded as "KZOZ Stereo 93" and aired an album-oriented rock format.

The 1980s brought several major changes at the station. On June 17, 1980, KZOZ changed call signs to KZOZ-FM[5] and flipped to top 40 with the branding "Z93". The station reverted to the KZOZ call letters on November 10, 1986. In December 1987, Phoenix Broadcasting Company sold KZOZ and then-sister station KKAL to Tattersall-Commonwealth Broadcasters Company for $3,615,000.[6] The combo changed hands again in February 1989, when Tattersall-Commonwealth sold the pair to Anthony Brandon and L. Rogers Brandon for $2 million.[7] The Brandons' radio company would later be known as American General Media.

On October 14, 1991, KZOZ switched formats from top 40 to classic rock, dropping its longtime "Z93" branding.[8]

In 2003, KZOZ hired David Atwood as programming director. Atwood adjusted the station's music library in an active rock direction, adding newer songs alongside the existing classic rock as a response to the rise of modern rock rival KURQ. In the Arbitron Fall 2004 radio ratings survey, KZOZ finished in first place in the San Luis Obispo market among persons ages 12 and over.[9]

As of July 2018, programming on KZOZ includes Jeff & Jeremy, a local morning show that has aired since February 2006,[10] and Off The Record with Joe Benson, a nationally syndicated one-hour classic rock show.[11]
