Celebrating Public Radio Music Nationwide

On April 16, 2019, the noncomMUSIC Alliance and its partner stations will host the inaugural Public Radio Music Day.

Public Radio Music Day is a nationwide celebration uniting public radio music stations, fans, artists, and other members of the music industry to celebrate and spread the word about public radio’s special role in America’s music scene. 

Locally, our listeners and supporters of KDHX know who we are and how we’re dedicated to invigorating and connecting St. Louis' music scene every day. KDHX is proud to be part of this network, brining you uninterrupted, independent music 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Check out our new Video-A-Day Series featuring premiere videos of our recent Listen Live events, in-studio sessions and footage from the DHTV archives. And be sure to listen to our Local Artist Playlist Series on Spotify. Tune in at 88.1 FM or listen to the live stream right here at kdhx.org

Our participation in Public Radio Music Day is to help foster a better understanding that we’re one station in a network of public radio stations with shared values and championing music locally and nationally.
