KZZP ("104.7 KISS-FM"), is a Top 40 radio outlet serving the Phoenix, Arizona area. The Clear Channel Communications station broadcasts at 104.7 MHz with an Effective radiated power (ERP) of 100 kW and is licensed in Mesa, Arizona. Due to its 100 kW tower located atop South Mountain, the station can be easily picked up in most parts of Tucson. The station plays a large variety of hip-hop, pop and rock tracks, as well as the flagship station of the Johnjay and Rich in the Morning.

104.7 FM originally signed on the air in 1950 as KTYL-FM (calls now used by a station in Tyler, Texas), co-owned with 1310 AM in Mesa. It later became KBUZ-FM with a beautiful music format. In 1976 the station changed its call letters to KIOG and aired a soft rock format. Western Cities Broadcasting purchased KIOG in 1980 and flipped it to a Top 40 format as KZZP, with personalities like Jonathon Brandmeier, Dave Otto, and Steve Goddard.

Brandmeier later made a huge name for himself in Chicago at WLUP. His show on KZZP featured prank phone calls, parody songs which Brandmeier himself usually wrote, sang and recorded, and a cast of regular characters. When Brandmeier went to Chicago's WLUP, Western Cities won an injunction to keep him off the air in the Windy City until his contract with KZZP had officially expired.

Jonathon "Johnny B" Brandmeier is a Chicago radio personality and musician.

Born John Francis Brandmeier to a German father and a Lebanese mother, Brandmeier started his radio career in 1973 at WFON in Fond du Lac, Wisconsin. When he was 18 (1974 or 1975), he joined WOSH-AM in Oshkosh, Wisconsin, later working as a DJ at WYNE (now WHBY-AM) in Appleton, Wisconsin, then at KLIV-AM in San Jose, California, then as the morning jock at WYBR-FM (now WXRX-FM) in Rockford, Illinois, and then in 1980 at WOKY-AM in Milwaukee. In February 1981, he was brought on as the KZZP-FM morning DJ in Phoenix, Arizona, where he participated in prank phone calls and silly song parodies. In 1982, Brandmeier released his first album Just Havin' Fun.

WLUP ("The Loop") in Chicago hired him in 1983, where his morning show was broadcast on both 1000 AM and 97.9 FM stations. He also had a short-lived TV show in 1991, Johnny B. on the Loose and recorded three more albums, Almost Live (1984), Brandmeier (1989) and Dink: The Man Formerly Known As Brandmeier (1994) with his band Johnny and the Leisure Suits. His most memorable songs include "We're All Crazy In Chicago" (a local Top Ten hit), "Hey Der Milwaukee Polka", and "The Moo-Moo Song" (based on an actual event in the 1980s when a local attempted to make love to a cow in the Lincoln Park Zoo). A few of his songs were occasionally played on the Dr. Demento Show, which was also syndicated on Sunday nights on WLUP until 2010.

Benny Mardones (born November 9, 1946) is an American pop singer and songwriter who is best known for his hit single "Into the Night", which hit the Top 20 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart twice, in 1980 and again in 1989.

Due to the success of "Into the Night," Curb Records signed Mardones and he recorded "Into the Night '89." The track appeared on his self-titled release (known as the "Blue Album" by his fans.) Not long after that, Mardones appeared on a Showtime tribute to Roy Orbison, alongside such luminaries as Bob Dylan, John Fogerty, Johnny Cash and k.d. lang. Elvis Presley's band was the house band for the evening. When Mardones came on stage to sing "Running Scared," few people knew his name, but when he finished the song, he received a standing ovation.

Even though his lone hit charted twice, Mardones is still considered a "one-hit wonder." He continues to have a substantial fan following in Syracuse, New York with his band called the Hurricanes.

Mardones began his career as a songwriter. He has written songs for people like Brenda Lee and Chubby Checker. He used to demo the songs he wrote and Tommy Motola suggested that he record his own songs. Since that time he has written and recorded over 100 songs.
