Revered disc jockey and media personality, Ron Muschette has bounced back quickly following his emotional split from popular radio station, IRIE FM last week by joining fast-rising radio network, Mello FM.
Muschette announced the move in a video on his official YouTube page he shared on his Facebook page on Thursday. His new show on the network, The Perfect Mix With Ron Muschette, which will air on weekdays from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. JA time, starting on January 5.
“I’m actually going back home,” he said. “I’m going to go back home to Montego Bay where it all started for me. We have signed a nice deal with Mello FM.”
This makes him the third major radio personality to join Mello, after Barrington “Barry G” Gordon, who joined the station in 2011 and whose show will follow Muschette’s at the 1 p.m. to 5 p.m. slot, as well as Richard ‘Richie B’ Burgess, who has been a regular fixture on morning radio since joining.
In the video, Muschette went into detail about why he resigned from IRIE after 15 years on the job, where he was most popularly known for his morning program, Wake Up Call. Fighting back tears at times, Muschette explained that it was ‘time to go,’ but still loves the station that made him a star within the local media industry since the turn of the millenium.
“Thanks to all the many people… we had a very good run on the Wake Up Call,” he said. “Just like any relationship, parting doesn’t mean you don’t love each other anymore, but sometimes you just have to do what you have to do.”
