Hunter Owens on WHRO's Tiny Desk Concert

Hunter Owens in WHRO studios

Tune in this Sunday for the next WHRO Tiny Desk Concert- this week featuring Mathews County Teen Hunter Owens. Be prepared to be amazed at the range and talent of this High School Junior. Already, an accomplished performer with three albums and performances across the Commonwealth at venues and festivals including The Old Dominion Barn Dance and WTKR's Coast Live. Owens performs both originals and covers and has an incredible catalog of tunes to share. And he brought his dad to the recording session, which we thought was awesome! Hunter Owens- his thoughts- his inspiration-his music. Sunday night at 6 on WHRV 89.5

Barry Graham used to arrive at WHRO with a briefcase full of papers and lesson plans. For 32 years he taught US and Virginia Government in the Virginia Beach Public Schools. While teaching was always his first love, radio was a close second. While attending Old Dominion, Barry was program director at WODU, the college radio station. After graduating, he came to WHRO as an overnight announcer. Originally intending to stay on only while completing graduate school, he was soon hooked on Public Radio and today is the senior announcer on WHRV. In 2001, Barry earned his Ph.D in Urban Studies by writing a history of WHRO and analyzing its impact upon local education, policy and cultural arts organizations.
