DETROIT ALT-ROCK CITY

iHeartMedia Detroit has officially announced the launch of the New ALT 106.7 (WDTW). The freshly flipped Alternative station began its broadcast life with 10k songs commercial-free, cuing up format giants like Foo Fighters, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Green Day, Linkin Park, twenty one pilots and other Modern perennials. You can listen to the live feed below.

Expect details about on-air personalities and more soon.

"This station will be a cool new piece in the renaissance" of Motor City, SVP of Programming Tony Travatto says. "ALT 106.7 will be the go-to destination for listeners to find the best in alternative music. We’re committed to helping listeners discover new music and serving as an ambassador for up-and-coming local bands."

As you may have heard, Lisa Worden came aboard last week as iHeart's Alternative Brand Manager; she may find the new station's spot on the dial strangely familiar.
