Bio
Annie “Sunshine” Sommers thanking you for listening and allowing me to spend time with you each day!
I’ve been blessed with doing what I love all my professional days! Starting in the Twin Cities where I grew up, I went to Brown Institute, (they called us “brownies”), and the rest is history. I’ve been in radio markets Atlanta, Orlando, Tampa and now, the beautiful Suncoast, Sarasota! Some of my more memorable highlights in my career, traveling to Copenhagen to meet and see the Rolling Stones in concert, broadcasting live from Moscow , running into Garth Brooks at Pleasure Island in Orlando, one of the nicest people on the planet.and meeting so many wonderful people! I got into this business because of my love for people, music, it's like my hobby. I'm a firm believer in being "happy" with what you do for a living. My Brother Dan, (the radio man), works in Wenatchee, Wash. as a morning talk show host, runs in the family. On a personal note, I’ve been battling the fight of my life! Ovarian cancer! I remain positive, strong and believe in the Powers above. What this has taught me? Don't sweat the small stuff and don't take "life" for granted. I am blessed with a very supportive and loving family, friends and my radio family at Clear Channel. I am a true believer in the power of positive thinking, attitude is everything! (You heard of the “Secret”? The buzz on the streets! ( http://www.thesecret.tv/) I know we have one thing in common, our love for music! It's the universal language. Any time I can play you a tune or answer a question, send me an e-mail request.
I've been collecting "acoustic" music as a hobby for the last 12 years and I invite you to uplug with me every Sunday, 10a-3p, Sunday Acoustic Brunch. It's one of the most unique shows on the Suncoast, tune in and find out why, on 92-1 Lite FM!
