The station began broadcasting on July 4, 1989 as
oldies KQLD. In 1993, it flipped to
country music as
KGTR,
106.7 The Gator. In 1994, the station flipped to
smooth jazz as
KLJZ. In September 1996, the station flipped to
modern rock as
106.7 The End, introducing its current KKND calls. The station added the
Howard Stern show in January 1997, and eventually dropped it in December 1999. In August 2005, KKND was knocked off the air by
Hurricane Katrina. On January 8, 2006, KKND returned to air with a new hybrid country/rock format, ''Rockin' Country 106.7
. In early-2007, the station dropped this hybrid format and shifted to a more conventional country format, later rebranding on December 26 as 106.7 The Wolf''. On May 20, 2008, KKND flipped to
urban adult contemporary as
Old School 106.7, assuming the format of sister station
KMEZ. The two stations simulcasted until July 3, when KMEZ flipped to
rhythmic contemporary as
Power 102.9. KKND's calls were also moved to 102.9, being briefly replaced by
KXOS before switching to
KMEZ itself. On December 6, 2018, the two stations began to simulcast once more, this time to migrate the urban AC format back to 102.9 (with the KKND calls also returning to 106.7). Cumulus stated that the simulcast would last for 30 days, after which KKND would launch a new format. On January 3, 2019, KKND flipped to
classic hits as
106.7 The Krewe, adding
John McConnell's
The Spud Show for mornings. On September 8, 2020, KKND flipped to
hot adult contemporary, maintaining the
Krewe branding, and replacing McConnell with the syndicated
The Bert Show. On September 10, 2021, KKND changed their format to urban gospel, branded as "Heaven 106.7". The change came after the station had briefly gone off air, along with the rest of their sister stations, after their transmitter had been destroyed in the midst of
Hurricane Ida three weeks prior. The change also came after the station, despite the move to Hot AC, barely registered in the local Nielsen Audio Ratings, carrying just a 0.3 share of the market in the July 2021 ratings. On March 18, 2025, KKND swapped formats with sister station WRKN. ==Previous logo==
