KPCZ-FM (106.7 MHz) is a radio station licensed to Rayne, Louisiana. It broadcasts to the central Acadiana area, including Lafayette. The station is owned by Broadcast Partners Inc. Its studios are in Crowley and the transmitter is located north of Crowley.
KPCZ-FM's previous classic country format was introduced on October 6, 2014. KPCZ-FM had previously broadcast a Cajun music format since January 2012, which had in turn replaced an earlier classic country format under the station's previous KLEJ call sign.[2]
On February 28, 2022, KPCZ-FM rebranded as "Freedom 106.7".[3]
On April 1, 2023, KPCZ-FM dropped its classic country format (which moved to KSIG 1450 AM Crowley) and began stunting with nonstop Cajun/Zydeco music by Wayne Toups.[4]
On April 3, 2023, KPCZ-FM ended stunting and launched a classic alternative format, branded as "Planet Radio 106.7".[5]
