Kevin Rolston from Hubbard AC WRMF/West Palm Beach morning show “KVJ Show” has been named the recipient of the “Kidd Kraddick Award.”
Awarded annually by Morning Show Bootcamp, the award is named in honor of Kidd Kraddick. It recognizes “those of unparalleled success, inimitable style and authenticity, exemplary service to their community and serving as a constant source of inspiration to other shows and personalities.”
As last year’s winner, Top 40 KDWB Minneapolis’ Dave Ryan was responsible for choosing this year’s winner.
Ryan said of his selection,” “Kevin is amazing on two important fronts — of course, he’s an incredible radio talent. His content is different, fun, innovative, and absolutely compelling. He never plays it safe, and it pays off. On top of that, he’s a visionary. He sees where the industry is going and how to get his show on that same path. If you want to know where to point your show in 2024, follow Kevin.”
Rolston said, “There isn’t an honor I would cherish more. I believe Kidd Kraddick was the most gifted person to ever crack a microphone in our industry. Everyone to have received his award is an industry giant. I don’t feel worthy, but I’m not gonna turn this down either! And to receive this award from Dave Ryan is such a cool full-circle moment for me.”
