On January 23, 2026, Anita West joined me for a great conversation on her life's journey in music.

Anita West is the embodiment of energy and musical passion. Her commercial rock journey began in Atlantic City in 1983, eventually leading her to Buffalo in 1988, where she became the midday personality of 97 Rock. A self-proclaimed "music head," Anita's life revolves around the industry; when she's off-air, she stays busy as a promoter, talent buyer, and event coordinator. When it's time to unplug, you'll find her tending her garden, cycling, hitting the Lake Erie beaches, or chasing the horizon on the back of a motorcycle.

You can catch her on-air Saturday mornings at 10:00 am on "The Saturday Meet Up" and Sunday nights from 9:00-10:00 pm on "Get the Led Out".
