Story
Our local stations are not really local. They are governed by London and not allowed to play requests or give shout outs. Chief Radio plays all the songs you expect to hear or radio and more.
We keep our communites together and we also provide music and art sessions online and in person. We put on events, have kids birthday parties (Kids Rock) and we have raised over £160,000 for charity with Sing in the City and Hanley and the Baird
We support unsigned bands with free airplay and we encourage our listeners to like, follow, stream and buy music and tickets for gigs.
We have singalongs in carehomes, a singing group for cognative decline, guitar and art lessons and music classes in specialised schools or low income areas.

Bringing singing and music to those who need it, can’t afford it, don’t know how to access it and who just deserve a little light in their lives is so important. Keep it up, let it shine ❤️
