TWO young Mayo disc jockeys scooped up prestigious honours at the PPI Awards last Friday.
Ballina’s Ray Foley and Breaffy’s Keith Cunningham again took home awards at the Phonographic Performance Ireland Radio Awards 2009, the Oscars of the Irish radio industry.
Ballina’s Foley, who presents the hugely popular Ray Foley Show on Today FM every weekday from 12-2.30pm took home one of the top awards of the night - the Music Broadcaster of the Year.
For Breaffy man Keith Cunningham, it was more success.
Working in Cork with regional station Red FM, Cunningham’s breakfast show The Red Rooster fought off stiff competition from larger, national stations to take home the prize, beating 2FM’s Colm and Jim Jim Breakfast Show to top spot.
Cunningham, together with his sidekick Lenny from Blarney, present The Red Rooster every weekday morning from 6am to 10am.
