RED 94.5 has spent the past month on the hunt to replace Tiago Rey, who has been leading the station for the past 4 years. The search comes to an exciting end as NRG Media Lincoln / Broadcast House Media welcomes D-Wayne Taylor as new Program Director for RED 94.5.

With D-Wayne’s arrival, the on-air team does some shuffling as he also takes over the morning show. Current RED 94.5 staff Bic will remain in Middays, and DJ Swift moves from Nights to Afternoons, adding the role of “House DJ” to his repertoire for weekday “5pm Takeover” and Friday night “Weekend Rollout” live mix shows.

D-Wayne says, “I’m incredibly excited to join and grow the legacy of a station that exhibits the unique energy of Lincoln at its core and lives the listener’s lifestyle. Big thanks to Ami Graham, Steve King and NRG Media for the awesome opportunity and making me feel immediately welcome in this position. I’m ready to have some fun!”

Operations Manager Steve King adds, “Welcoming D-Wayne to NRG Media Lincoln / Broadcast House Media was a no-brainer. He has embedded himself in the market and is a fixture at University of Nebraska Lincoln sporting events. I am excited to see how the future of RED 94.5 grows and evolves under his leadership.”

D-Wayne begins his new role at RED 94.5 on Oct. 31, 2022. Listen live or stream online.
