Kenny Perez
88Nine Program Director / On-Air TalentHometown:
Norwalk, Conn., by way of New York.
First concert:
The last Lollapalooza at Alpine Valley with Tool, Devo and Snoop Dogg!
Favorite place to take a visitor in Milwaukee:
I love taking people to get a good cup of coffee because far too often they don’t have the best brews in their hometown.
What about you would surprise people:
You’d be surprised by how versatile of a DJ I am. I love surprising people with eclectic sounds from all over the world in several different genres.
Favorite artist of all time:
A real music lover would never answer this question.
