WBUZ (102.9 FM, "The Buzz") is a commercial radio station located in La Vergne, Tennessee, broadcasting to the Nashville, Tennessee, area . WBUZ airs an active rock music format. The station was assigned the WBUZ call letters by the Federal Communications Commission on October 16, 2001. The station's studios are located in southeast Nashville along the Murfreesboro Pike, and the transmitter is near Eagleville, Tennessee.
Originally licensed to (and based in) Shelbyville, Tennessee, the station signed on as WYCQ and operated for several years under the Q102 banner. After a power increase and move into the Nashville market, the station flipped to a hybrid country/ Southern Rock format known as "Rockin' Country 102.9". The station's mascot was an anthropomorphic cow playing an electric guitar, and the station eventually changed its name to "Moo 102" (WMMU) to match its mascot. 102.9 then shifted toward a mainstream country format and became known as "PC103" and "Power Country 103", before settling on "Power Country 102.9" (WZPC) until April 2, 1999. On that date, WZPC flipped to a Rock format, essentially "trading" formats with 103.3 WKDF, which had changed formats from new rock to country on April 1, 1999. The call letters were changed to WBUZ in 2001.
In September 2010, WBUZ was named the new flagship station for the NHL's Nashville Predators, but after one season yielded this position to sister station WPRT-FM.
WBUZ (1570 AM, "1570 The Buzz") is a now-defunct radio station that was based in Fredonia, New York. The station was privately owned by Henry Serafin.
