Local FM listeners, contributors, and supporters:
Today, we celebrate our 20th anniversary as a CRTC-licensed non-profit radio station on the FM dial! We are hosting a special broadcast from 4-6pm to mark the occasion. Tune in to hear music by local artists Dumpster Cub, Doctor Mother Father, Sadie, Adam Mowery, Jamie Comeau & the Crooked Teeth, and more! We’ll also be chatting with Local FM programmers and former staff members about their experiences in the campus & community radio sector.
It is impossible to adequately enumerate and thank all of the individuals who have contributed to our station’s growth over the years, but we are immensely grateful to all of our former staff members, past and current programmers and board members, community partners, and listeners for their continued dedication to and investment in Local FM’s success. Thank you for fostering and sustaining our presence in Saint John’s arts & culture community.

Corey Bonnevie runs Monopolized Records in Saint John. He says the lack of social interaction had a deep impact on musicians.
“You’re not meeting new people. That’s a whole year or two that you’re not meeting new artists or new bands from outside of the province,” he said. “That’s a big reason to get involved in music.”
