The sound of the city

Melbourne has one of the world's great live music scenes, and its community stations are where new Australian music is heard first. Along the coast, Adelaide radio online covers South Australia, and across Bass Strait Tasmania radio online covers the island. Australian radio online and indie radio go further.

A little history

3AW has been on air since 1932. Triple R began in 1976 and PBS in 1979, and together they built Melbourne's reputation for community radio that champions local and independent music.
