UP! 93.1 Program Director Kate Buick says, “A feel good format is something that is new to the market, and new to Newcap Radio. The company decided Fredericton is the perfect place to start this brand, because the city has such a positive vibe. it’s a great place to work, play and raise a family, and UP! 93.1 will reflect that!”
UP! 93.1 will give listeners feel good music from the 70’s, 80’s, 90’s and today. It all starts June 24th with “The Wake Up!
