Our city. Our music. Our stories.
Radio tells stories better than almost any other
medium. Take it with you. You don't need to look, just listen. It's been that way for close on a century. But now, the rules and the tools have changed.
It doesn't break the bank to get started. Anyone can get on air. So there's tons of internet stations. Some want to turn the clock back - big mistake. Some are vanity vehicles. Others have specialised agendas; I approve. And all the time, mainstream media shrinks its offer, cuts costs and shuns local. The gap between large and small is now a chasm, a yawning gulf, financially and creatively.
Can this gap be bridged? I'd like to think it can. And here's one way we might find out. Welcome to Birmingham and the world, Brum Radio.
