Kelly Ford is a voice plenty of Denver country fans grew up with. If KYGO was a regular presence in your car or kitchen over the last couple of decades, you know her, and these days she’s doing much the same for listeners in Washington and Baltimore.
The current gig
As of October 2026, Kelly is music director and afternoon host at two stations at once: 98.7 WMZQ in Washington, DC, and 93.1 WPOC in Baltimore. She’s on the air weekdays from 3 to 7 p.m. In those jobs she is stepping in for WMZQ’s Ty Bailey and WPOC’s Jeff St. Pierre.
Denver roots
The biggest piece of her résumé is twenty years in Denver at KYGO. She also spent time in New York working on the morning show at WNSH.
Other stops along the way
Her most recent job before the move was out on Long Island, at 103.1 The Wolf (WWWF) in Bay Shore, New York, a Connoisseur Media station, where she handled the music and the afternoon show. Go back further and you’ll find her doing nights at KUPL in Portland and KBAY in San Jose, plus afternoons at WFLS in Fredericksburg.
