KXKC

KXKC (99.1 FM) is an American radio station licensed for New Iberia, Louisiana, in the Lafayette metropolitan area.

KNIR-FM became KDEA on August 1, 1972,[3] playing beautiful music-easy listening for the Lafayette and Baton Rouge radio markets.

On August 21, 1992, at 6 pm KDEA started playing the song "American Pie" by Don McLean on a continuous loop.

The storm came ashore early Wednesday morning, knocking the station off the air for 20 hours when water shorted out the transmitter in Parks, Louisiana.

Hurricane recovery information dominated the station for the next few days, but by the following Monday morning, August 31, 1992, KXKC was operating as normal.
