History

[edit]

KSIG has used the same call letters since 1947.[2] On October 4, 2018, Acadia Broadcast Partners, Inc. flipped KSIG from Oldies as "Kool 1450" to Soft Adult Contemporary as Sunny 95-1 with the sign-on of their new simulcast translator, K236CW, on 95.1 in Crowley, Louisiana which also covers the Lafayette, Louisiana Metro area as well.

On April 1, 2023, KSIG changed its format from soft adult contemporary to classic country, branded as "Freedom 95.1". (The classic country format moved from sister station KPCZ-FM 106.7 Rayne, which began stunting)[3]
