I started my radio career in 1985 at the tender age of 15. It all started on a dare. A friend and I dare each other to try out for a job at the local radio station. We did and I got the gig. I actually started out mowing the station lawn but 2 weeks in, the owner offered me a job. From there, I was hooked.

​I grew up on the music we play on Minnesota 97.5. I know it like the back of my hand. I wish they would bring back Rock n’ Roll Jeopardy. (Remember that show? Hosted by Jeff Probst from Survivor) I would kill it on that show. (probably not once I get a camera in front of me)

​My wife and I moved to Rochester in 2008. We love to travel (especially to Mexico). I also like beer Breaking Bad and The Office. As far as movies, I like stuff like Goodfellas, Shawshank Redemption, Casino, a good comedy or thriller and I LOVE horror movies. ​When I’m not on the air or at a station event, I like to hang out with my grandson. He’s my BFF 🙂

Julie Jones has been a Rochester on air staple for over 35 years and enjoys each day. “What a blessing to be part of such a fantastic community and gaining so many friends along the way,” she says!

Julie is very involved in the community and considers herself a Joy Spreader! Julie enjoys the simple things in life. Concerts, cooking, flowers, a garden, vacations in Mexico, swimming and convertible rides.​

She loves thrift shopping and potato chips as well. Julie loves to hang-out with family and friends. Julie considers it a privilege to be part of the soundtrack to your life.
