KMVA/Phoenix Welcomes Charlie Huero
• Desert Valley Media Group Rhythmic Hot AC KMVA (Hot 97.5 & 103.9)/Phoenix has wisely added another talented market mainstay to its on-air roster, hiring Charlie Huero to do afternoon drive. Huero spent the past 13 years across the street with Audacy Classic Hits KOOL-FM, most recently APD/afternoon talent. Before that he spent a decade at Desert Valley sister KKFR (Power 98.3 & 96.1)/Phoenix and earlier worked at KPWR (Power 106)/Los Angeles.
KMVA PD Mike Gallagher is understandably excited about his enhanced air staff, saying, “To have the opportunity to bring on absolute pros like Charlie Huero and Super Snake to the station in the span of less than 30 days is a dream scenario. Charlie is a guy who believes in the power of local radio, he’s entertained the Valley for over 20 years, and his passion matches our new rhythmic, up-tempo playlist perfectly.”
Huero exclaimed, “Just when I thought I was out… they pull me back in! Wait, someone already said that. It’s an honor to be a part of the Desert Valley Media Group family. Thank you to Jeff Trumper, Mike G, Tim Richards and so many more for their help and guidance. It’s a bit of a homecoming for me and getting to work again with so many familiar faces! I’m excited to be a part of the Hot 97.5 & 103.9 staff! I’m truly blessed! Let’s go!”
