What's up! I'm Val and I host the midday show here on WRRV. I began working here wayyyy back in 2005, and after a little break, i'm really glad to be back home! Pearl Jam, Shinedown, Coldplay - they top my favorites list, but these days it's all about AJR thanks to my 5 year old - the kid has a great ear for music, but I mean, are you surprised?! :)
