Mottla’s career includes the VP/programming position at Envisage Radio Group in Escondido, CA as well as programming rock stations including WHEB/WGIR Manchester, NH, WDRE Long Island, NY, WIYY Baltimore, MD, KTYD Santa Barbara, CA, and WFNX Boston, MA.
GM Jack Taddeo commented, “Rock 108 has weathered many attacks over 20 years in the format and we plan to remain the #1 rock station in both of our metro markets. We are fortunate to recruit someone of Russ’s caliber to our team and we look forward to continued growth in the future. Here’s a Fun Fact: Fans of the Grand Theft Auto video game franchise will recognize Russ as the voice of DJ Michael Hunt. I anticipate this may lead to some creative voicemail greetings around the station.”
Correction: It’s Russ and Rock 108 is an NRG Media station.
