COMPETITIONS – From time to time we will offer giveaways via competition within our shows.
MUSIC – Our playlist is updated weekly on a Friday, which means the newer songs are chopped are changed weekly, the rest of the playlist is from the ’80s till now with a sprinkling of 70’s and the VERY occasional song that’s older. All the songs on our radio station are feelgood with the intention you feel you can sing along. Unlike most radio stations our playlist is vast with over 2000 songs in rotation. – Songs to sing along to and local information all day along with your input makes us truly local.
