WXKS-FM

WXKS-FM (107.9 MHz), branded Kiss 108, is a commercial contemporary hit radio station licensed to serve Medford, Massachusetts, and covering Greater Boston.

Owned by iHeartMedia, the WXKS-FM studios are in Medford and the station transmits from atop the Prudential Tower in Downtown Boston.

[2] Sunny Joe White, a young programmer (who had previously programmed WILD in Boston), came aboard at "Kiss 108" upon its shift to disco[3] and had much to do with the station's early success.

)[5] With WXKS leaning towards a rhythmic direction at the time, more mainstream titles were heard in the market on WVBF-FM, WROR-FM, and WEEI-FM.

In 1987, White asked Boston icon John Garabedian (who previously owned, programmed and DJ'd on WMEX, WBCN, and V66/WVJV-TV) to do a weekend shift.

Garabedian proposed the idea of a live, nationally syndicated, all-request show called Open House Party for Saturday and Sunday nights.

From January 12, 1981, until his retirement in May 2022, morning DJ Matt Siegel was a fixture on the Boston airwaves and was briefly nationally syndicated during the late 1990s.
