KLRZ is a station whose format is Cajun, Zydeco and Swamp music. The station is licensed to Larose, Louisiana and targets both New Orleans and the Tri-Parishes area at 100.3 MHz with an ERP of 100 kW.

The station, which signed on the air in 1992, is now owned by Coastal Broadcasting Co. In July of 2005, Citadel Broadcasting entered into a $6,000,000 agreement to buy the station. However, after Hurricane Katrina, they had backed out of the purchase. In fact, a new tower had been built to put a better signal into New Orleans, and was turned on the week before Katrina hit. Speculation was that Citadel was going to either sign on a Rockin' Country format onto this signal (which eventually was put on 106.7) or move the format of 106.7 the End to 100.3.

Its current slogan is "All Louisiana, All The Time."
