Take a deep breath, this is a big block of text! Lover of new local Aussie music and always on the lookout for great tunes. I literally spend my working week listening to new independent tunes to give airtime. Producer for radio show Local Roots, airing 8pm Wednesday nights on Joy 94.9 in Melbourne. If I love a song and give it a 4.5 or 5 I'm going to play it on air. Each week we showcase the best new release tunes from Aussie bands you know and love, as well as giving a bunch of emerging bands the chance to have their songs aired.
