KVIB (95.1 FM, "Solamente Exitos") is a Spanish adult contemporary radio station serving the Phoenix metropolitan area and licensed to Sun City West, Arizona. The station is owned by Sun City Holdings under the name of "Sun City Communications," and is part of the Great Hill Partners investment portfolio. It is licensed to and operated by Riviera Broadcast Group.
KVIB was (until January 2014) the only Phoenix-area station to adopt the Hispanic rhythmic ("hurban") format, a youth-oriented radio format that plays both Spanish-language and English-language pop. The station's mix of music targets the Valley's burgeoning young Latino population, particularly long-time residents who can speak English but prefer Spanish.
On January 23, 2014 KVIB changed their format to Spanish adult contemporary, branded as "Solamente Exitos".
