The station was assigned the call sign KAPM by the Federal Communications Commission on July 24, 1985.[1] The station changed its call sign to KZKY on February 5, 1986, to KHKR-FM on August 22, 1988, and to KBMI-FM on July 11, 2013.

On April 5, 2017, Montana Radio Company announced that it would acquire Cherry Creek Media's Helena stations.
