KWMT-FM is an Adult Album Alternative radio station that serves Tucson, Arizona. KWMT-FM broadcasts on the frequency of 92.9 MHz, and is licensed to Tucson. The Mountain is owned by Clear Channel Communications.

The station plays a lot of what is on current adult album alternative (AAA) charts, such as The Fray, KT Tunstall, The Goo Goo Dolls, and Five for Fighting. They also have various artists come in to their studio to record live performances to play on their station. They also have a "chillside of the mountain" on every night from 11pm-1am.

Acoustic sunrise and acoustic sunset, from and 7am-noon and 8-11pm, respectively both offer a "unique blend of acoustic sounds", with a wide range of artists.

One distinctive feature that sets the mountain apart from other radio stations is the "personal feel" the DJS lend to the radio station. A few times a month, they also hold "Studio C's", smaller acoustic concerts, of 20-30 people. Listeners call in to win tickets, and are then invited to a recording studio downtown. These are usually held before or after an artist's performance in town. In addition, this private setting allows listeners to many times meet the artists.
