KISS 108 Boston

KISS 108 is the Top 40 station of Greater Boston, broadcasting as WXKS-FM on 107.9 FM. It plays current pop and contemporary hit radio, mixing chart hits with dance-leaning pop and the occasional throwback, and it is aimed at a younger, mainstream audience.

The station is licensed to Medford, Massachusetts, and is owned by iHeartMedia. It has used the Kiss 108 identity since the late 1970s, when it launched as a disco station, and it moved to a Top 40 format in the early 1980s. Over the decades it has become one of the best known pop stations in New England and hosts the annual Kiss concert in the Boston area. Programming includes local and syndicated on-air shows, with the lineup changing from time to time.

Listeners can expect a fast-paced stream of recognisable pop songs, music news and entertainment chatter, plus contests and event promotion. The stream is delivered in English as a low-bitrate AAC audio feed through the iHeartRadio network, so it works well on mobile connections. Commercial breaks and station promotions are part of the live broadcast.
