Teen DJs Broke Christina Perry On Radio
. "I remember the first moment my song was on the radio so well," she said. "It is probably one of my favorite stories to this day. I was driving on my first promo trip, I don't know if you my whole story, but how I went from a waitress to a recording artist over night. I didn't know anything about radio promo, I didn't know anything about shows, I was the greenest you could possibly be." Perri was driving with her radio rep and guitar player to Monterey, California, listening to what she thought was a college radio station. "The reason why we kept it on was because they kept playing cool stuff like Jeff Buckley into Paul Simon. It was just this great mix," she recalled. "All of a sudden the DJs come on and they're two 13-year-old girls literally broadcasting from their bedroom. I'm not even kidding. I don't even know how it's possible." Perri continued to listen to the station for the rest of the 45-minute drive. Once she arrived in Monterey and checked into her hotel, her rep called her on the phone. more.
