Connoisseur Media Turns It Up In San Antonio As 103.3 The App Returns To Alternative Radio
December 3, 2025
Connoisseur Media is turning the volume all the way up with the launch of 103.3 The APP, bringing alternative radio back to San Antonio for the first time in nearly a decade. Just launched Monday, December 1, the station is San Antonio’s only alternative radio destination, delivering more than 35 years of iconic and influential music from the genre.
Broadcasting from the historic Tower of the Americas, 103.3 The APP showcases a deep library of alternative favorites. Listeners can expect to hear core artists like Linkin Park, Green Day, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Imagine Dragons, The Lumineers, Sublime, Nirvana, and many more. Complementing its FM presence, the station introduces its new companion mobile app, available now in both the Apple App Store and Google Play, offering listeners a seamless digital experience.
San Antonio native DJ Mighty Iris joins the lineup as afternoon drive host from 3–7 p.m., marking her return to local airwaves. “I’m honestly still in shock and honored that I will soon be able to return to the S.A. airwaves and be part of someone’s drive home,” said Iris. “We all love this station because it’s different. Alternative music has so many sounds and offshoots, it doesn’t fit into one box. You can hear anything from The Strokes to The Clash to R.E.M. Alternative music is timeless, and I’m beyond excited to reunite with 103.3 The APP!”
Program Director Greg Martin emphasized the strong demand for the format’s return, “San Antonio has always been a rock town, but there has been a void in this city for this body of music. 103.3 The APP was received with great praise when it debuted nearly a decade ago, and the excitement is absolutely here again for this second run.”
Connoisseur Media’s commitment to the growth and future of the alternative format continues across its national portfolio. “With the launch of 101.5 The Fridge in Dayton, the reimaging of 106.3 The Core in Saginaw, our heritage ALT properties in Columbia and Louisville, and now 103.3 The APP in San Antonio, Connoisseur Media is making a strong commitment to the health and future of alternative music,” said Keith Dakin, Vice President of Programming. “With an unbelievable catalog of songs plus the excitement around current artists like Tame Impala, Sombr, Turnstile, and Royal Otis, it is a great time to be in the alt business.”
