KROX-FM, aka 101X, is Austin's alternative rock terrestrial radio station. 101X signed on as "Austin's New Rock Alternative" on 6/8/1995. The original airstaff included Sara Trexler, former KNNC (Austin's original commercial alternative radio outlet) personality Rachel Marisay, LA Lloyd Hocutt, Butthole Surfer Gibby Haynes, KNNC ex Ray Seggern, Austin Chronicle critic and Z-Rock Austin personality Andy Langer, and more. 101X veered into active rock territory at the height of alternative's TRL-friendly nu-metal period of the late-90's. It's since returned to a broadly-appealing alternative presentation, closely associated with local Austin music and the more popular front of today's indie-rock. Current personalities include the latest edition of The Morning X, featuring Mike & Jason Dick, Lynn Lawless (another 'NNC vet dating back to 1991), 12 year station vet Toby Ryan, and metal specialty/overnight host Chuck Loesch. Seggern returned to the staff as host of the popular Chillville downtempo/electronica/acoustic program Sunday mornings. Langer remains on-board as host of the Sunday night-aired Next Big Thing indie and local-oriented show.
