History

Gowdy, a Green River native and University of Wyoming alumnus, purchased the existing Laramie AM station, KOWB, in 1966.
KCGY first signed on in 1978. The station and KOWB were eventually sold by Gowdy's company in 1992. Eventually the stations were sold to what was then Clear Channel Communications, the precursor to iHeartMedia.
In January 2021, Townsquare Media consolidated its two competing Country stations in the market, making KCGY the sole dedicated Country brand for the cluster. KCGY briefly simulcast on sister station KLEN before that station flipped to a top 40 format.
