WBWZ (93.3 MHz "Z93") is a commercial FM radio station licensed to New Paltz, New York, and serving the Mid-Hudson Valley of New York state. The station is owned by iHeartMedia, Inc. Its effective radiated power (ERP) is 330 watts, broadcasting from a transmitter near Illinois Mountain in Marlborough, New York, on a tower shared with longtime sister station 107.3 WRWD-FM.[2]

Z93 calls itself "Today's Classic Rock". It primarily plays harder-edged classic rock titles with some active rock songs from the 1990s and 2000s that are not usually heard on Classic Rock stations. Its main competition is 101.5 WPDH in Poughkeepsie, which also leans to classic rock but not as hard-edged.
