On Friday, November 29, 2013, joined Dave Kane for a in studio interview.

Over the past few month WARL has built a broadcast team that is the envy of the area. Throughout the day you can hear the lastest news, traffic, weather, sports and entertainment. Why listen to any other station?

To learn more about our broadcast team here are some short bios:

Domenic Cotoia
My background in Radio Broadcasting starts as I attended the former Rhode Island Junior College, now C.C.R.I. in Warwick, R.I. as an on-air disc jockey at their “on campus” radio station for four years, and being appointed station manager in my Junior year. While a Junior, I also attended the former Rhode Island School of Broadcasting. After graduation, interned at a few local radio stations helping out in radio sales & commercials, including WLKW. Eventually got hired at a Fall River station (WSAR) to oversee satellite music programs, and within six months later, got a call from the Program Director of Attleboro’s hometown radio station (then-WARA) where I was hired to work on-air playing oldies on weekends and within just a few months, was promoted to their afternoon disc jockey, Production & music director!

Jim Corbin
Jim Corbin is a 30 year veteran of New England TV and radio weather forecasting. A native of Braintree, MA…Jim graduated from Lyndon State College in 1983. He briefly worked as a weather observer at the famous Blue Hill Observatory before starting his TV career later that same year. As meteorologist and environmental reporter, Jim has worked in Burlington, VT, Portland, ME, Boston, and since 1997 at channels 6, 10, and 12 in Providence as well as various radio stations around the area. His knowledge and experience in our climate makes his forecasts accurate and adding interesting tidbits about how the outdoors is affecting us makes his broadcasts informative.

Elaine Laroche
Elaine has a BA degree in Communications with focus on Film, Television and Journalism. She was one of the first reports/photographers for the North Attleboro Free Press. She also won both a National and State Wide Video Producer award. Recently, she graduated with a certification in Medical Assisting program and has a CPR certification.

One of the best ways to introduce your business or promote your event to the public is to schedule a live remote with SOMA Broadcasting.

On Saturday, July 13, 2013 we brought SOMA listeners a broadcast of the Farmers Market Hour live from the Attleboro Farmers Market.  Coordinated by Eddie Porreca of the Attleboro Farmers Market,  there were two hours of engaging local content for your listening enjoyment.

If you are interested in having a live broadcast from your location to promote your business or event please call Jay Rogers at 774-203-9275 or email him at jay@soma1320.com

Here is the 25th Anniversary Bumper Sticker from WARA 1320AM.

2013 is the year for 1320!  On May 6th, WARL (formerly WARA) began airing live, local programming from Attleboro!  WARL has partnered with Southern Massachusetts Broadcasting to bring 36 hours per week of Attleboro-centric talk, news, sports, information and fun back!  From 6A.M.-Noon, Monday-Saturday, listeners to A.M. 1320 will hear their own voices from their own hometown radio station!  This is called “SoMa 1320” and when it is on the air, listeners will be treated to programming geared towards Southern Massachusetts (including the 495 corridor to Taunton).  Over the next weeks & months, SoMa will be strengthening its programming and getting out into the community.

That’s where you come in!  Why not call in to one of our shows at (508)222-1320 or e-mail our hosts?  This isn’t just monologues one after the other!  This is radio of which you can take part!  Engage our hosts!  Be heard!  This is radio for YOU!  Not Providence, not Boston-this is radio for north and east of the border!  SoMa Radio is for Southern Massachusetts!
