FacebookPassing this on for whatever interest there may be by Ottawa musicians. It will be
interesting to see if the DAWG playlists will fulfill earlier intents to give a music
forum to Ottawa musicians. Hopefully, it will.

Ottawa, April 8 2010 – For Immediate Release
Ottawa’s first Blues Rock radio station, 101.9 DAWG FM, announced today that Geoff Winter and Laura Mainella will host the “DAWG’s Breakfast” morning show.
“I am very excited to be returning back to my roots!” says Geoff after a ten year stint as a radio host in Florida. “I am thrilled to be working with a great team of people and playing the music I love! This is going to be an exhilarating time in Ottawa radio and I'm pleased to be a part of it.” Winter helped to build CHEZ FM's audience after it launched.
Co-hosting is 20 year veteran Laura Mainella. Laura brings her dynamic, outspoken personality to complete the morning show duo.
“I am fortunate to be given the opportunity to work with such a motivated team. Ottawa artists have been longing for a supportive, engaging forum to showcase their talent. Throw us a bone and we promise not to disappoint."
Operations Manager, Yves Trottier, is proud of DAWG’s new team. “After an exhaustive talent search, I'm very excited about our morning team. Geoff and Laura’s styles complement each other very well and they are a great fit for the station’s sound. We are confident that with our new morning show, DAWG FM will have an immediate impact on the Ottawa Market."
101.9 DAWG FM provides a new music choice for the Ottawa market that will target adults aged 25-54, with a core demographic between 35 and 54. DAWG FM will play the best of Stevie Ray Vaughan, Jeff Healey, B.B. King, Ray Charles, Colin James, The Rolling Stones, Jimi Hendrix, Eric Clapton and Van Morrison.
