}}WRZE (94.1 FM) is a radio station airing a classic rock format. Licensed to Kingstree, South Carolina, United States, the station is owned by iHeartMedia, Inc., through licensee AMFM Radio Licenses, L.L.C.[1]

History

In a deal announced in February 1997, Root Communications Ltd. announced plans to buy eight radio stations owned by Florence, South Carolina-based Atlantic Broadcasting, including WGSS.[2] Qantum Communications Inc. purchased Florence's Root Communications Group LP stations in 2003.[3]

WGSS was "94.1 The Light", an Urban gospel station, prior to 2009.

At one time, WRZE simulcast WDAR-FM and played adult contemporary music.[4]

In 2012, Sunny 94.1 was flipped to Mainstream Urban "Swagga". It was also simulcast on WWRK.[5] Later WWRK moved from 1400 to 970 AM.[6][7]

On May 15, 2014, Qantum Communications announced that it would sell its 29 stations, including WRZE, to Clear Channel Communications (now iHeartMedia) for WALK AM-FM in Patchogue, New York as part of the sale of the WALK stations to Connoisseur Media.[8] The transaction was consummated on September 9, 2014.

In August 2017, WRZE, WWRK and the translators began simulcasting WDAR-FM, which took over the urban contemporary format.[9]

On September 14, 2017 WRZE, WWRK and the translators dropped the urban simulcast with WDAR-FM and switched to classic rock, branded as "Rock 94.1 - 97.9 - 105.9". The station airs the syndicated "Rover's Morning Glory".[10]

Translators

In addition to the main station, WRZE is relayed by a translator to widen its broadcast area.[11]
