History

Both stations have had a history of various formats, most notably Adult R&B at 104.5 (from the 1990s to 2000 and from 2001 to 2003) and Rhythmic Oldies at 104.9 (late 1990s to 2001).

In 2000 the 104.5 signal became a Modern Rock outlet, only to move over to 104.9 in 2001. In 2003 both stations became a simulcast and adopted the 104 The X handle.

In 2007, 104 the X presented X-Fest at the Baton Rouge River Center. They plan on this being a yearly tradition for the Red Stick.

The current air staff of X-Fest consists of Shannon Marks (mornings and middays), The Fish (afternoons), and Dan Day (nights).
