Adult Standards

Adult Standards delivers upscale 35-64's like never before! The format combines the top-testing gold standards from the world's best artists from the 50's through the 70's, like Frank Sinatra, Neil Diamond, Barbra Streisand, Tony Bennett, and Nat King Cole with carefully researched songs from more contemporary artists such as Barry Manilow, Celine Dion, Michael Buble, Rod Stewart, and Elton John. It's the best of both worlds, planting your station strategically in between the Nostalgia and Soft AC formats, right where the Baby Boomers are. Our personalities are seasoned major-market pros who deliver America's best music with experience, enthusiasm, and class.
