BRO Annual Dinner Hosts and Entertaiment

This year BRO is stirring things up with an impressive list of hosts and entertainment. Daria O' Neal and Mitch Elliot are set to host and Northwest Favorite Storm Large is set perform. Scroll down to read more about them.

Storm Large

Described as a six foot Vargas pin-up come to life, Storm Large was born to tear rooms apart with her over the top stage presence and thunderous pipes . Her voice can stretch from arena huge rock  , or sing you sweetly into a soft dream , you never know what she'll do , but you're always glad she did . Backed by her world-class Balls , they are a one of a kind show that became a NW institution at four years . In 2006 , Storm was tapped to compete on CBS' "Rockstar/Supernova" and the World fell in love .  She won an international audience with appearances on CBS, the E-network, the Ellen DeGeneres show, Howard Stern and more.  Her song "Ladylike" debuted at #5 on the Billboard hot singles chart, was #1 in Iceland for 6 weeks . The Balls have toured from Rekjavick to Christ Church and all over the US and Canada .


Daria O’Neil

Daria's loving, spastic, giddy, sarcastic, hypnotic, verbose assault on the Portland airwaves has been continuing strong for 11 years and counting. Currently heard weekday afternoons from 3 to 7 on 105.1 the Buzz, newlywed to Portland Lacrosse legend Dallas Eliuk, and partnered with Mitch Elliott, the co-host of her dreams, Daria has never been happier. And it seems the happier Daria gets, the lower her neckline plunges. Legally, Daria needs to level her happiness level immediately.

 

Mitch Elliott:

Mitch Elliott has been a radio personality for the past 21 years, having hosted top-rated shows in Atlanta, Seattle and now Portland. He lives with his partner of 7 years, Derek St. Laurent, and his two wonderful dogs, Frodo and Shelby-Lynne in SW Portland. Mitch has been actively involved with LGBT causes for over two decades
