Our new DJ Spotlight is our very own DJ Hammy! When she’s not pursuing her major in Media and Information, she’s at the station from 6PM-8PM on Tuesdays. Make sure to call 517-884-8989 and request songs from LCD Sound System to make her day!

1. What made you decide to join Impact and become a DJ?

I joined impact because I’ve always been passionate about obscure music and wanted to channel that into something palpable.

2. What has been your best on air experience?

I gave Nothing tickets away and the winner was thrilled! It felt good to know I was able to assist in making someone’s day.

3. How do you think working in radio will affect your future career and life experience?

I’m not too great at predicting the future but so far I’ve gotten the pleasure of experiencing things I would have never believed I would do, I can only hope that trend continues.

4. What is your favorite part of the station?

The sticky note wall in the fix studio.

5. If you could play an artist non-stop on the air, which would it be?

LCD Sound System.

6. What is the best concert experience you have had? Why?

Last April at Euphoria Music and Arts Festival I saw Nahko and Medicine for the People, a lyrically gifted indigenous man backed with a full band. I was surrounded by close friends from far away places, and spent the experience with tears of joy in my eyes, drinking a mimosa on a blow up couch.

Our next DJ Spotlight of the Week will be out on 4/17.
