About me:
Kane is the afternoon personality for WFLZ-FM, Tampa Bay. This is actually his second run at 93-3FLZ. He first moved to Tampa in 1998 to host "The Extreme Show" -- 93-3FLZ's award winning and highly rated 7p-11p show. He left in October of 2000 to move to Washington, DC. to start XM Satellite Radio. He returned to Tampa in June of 2004.
Kane wasn't always the center of attention -- or very popular. Growing up in Danbury, CT. he was ran with the geeky "art" crowd. Picked on by jocks, made fun of by the burnouts and turned down by the cheerleaders, Kane had an uneventful childhood. Rather than dating, he spent time drawing and doing creative stuff. He also interned for WKCI-FM, KC101 in New Haven, CT. where he painted offices, cleaned vans and was accused of sleeping with the Program Directors wife (he was only 16). It was then that his passion behind radio was fueled.
He continued to drive an hour to intern for free until he graduated high school in 1995. Kane was accepted to Syracuse University's school of Visual and Performing Arts and was going to pursue a career in advertising and design. While attending college, he volunteered for Z89, one of the two radio stations operated by the University. Still very green, Kane experimented and tried to refine his on-air style his freshman and sophomore years. He was "asked to leave" the station in June of 1997 because he said "ass" on the air. He was told that "this was not 'New York" and "you can't do that kind of thing in radio." He was hired a month later to do nights on the new sign on WWHT-FM, Hot 107.9 across town. Spending days in classes, and nights with the asses, Kane was courted to move to Florida and join the legendary staff at WFLZ.
In 1998 he made the move from the land of snow to the sunshine state. He's been in love with 93-3FLZ ever since. Kane's show has always been about the masses. His highly rated afternoon show is carried in several cities each weekday. He is also syndicated to several hundred markets with the highly successful Sunday Night Open House Party, which is also carried on WFLZ.
Kane's newest adventures take him to Washington, DC. to host mornings at Hot 99-5. His Tampa afternoon show will be broadcast from his home-studio.
Kane has been awarded the Radio Music Award for CHR Air Personality Of The Year 2004 as well as A.I.R. Awards for best evening drive show and best new talent. He's had the chance to talk to every major artist from Usher to Britney, 50 Cent to Mariah. He's even had his own television show. He speaks regularly to Elementary and Middle schools about the importance of education and volunteers his time to various events throughout Tampa Bay. He's an accomplished artist and aviation enthusiast and is finishing work on his pilots license. Kane lives in Gaithersburg, MD. with Fiance, their two dogs and cat.
