979 FM (Melton) Fundraising Concert

Corner Hotel, Richmond Wednesday 23rd November

For over thirty years Melton’s community radio station 979fm has been integral in the development of Victoria’s rich musical and cultural heritage and is one of Australian’s oldest community radio stations, first going to air in 1980. Since then 979fm has proven to be a breeding ground for upcoming talent with former announcers including Triple J’s Stu Harvey and ABC News 24’s Vanessa O’Hanlon.

The station has been based at a local high school since 1991, but with the campus about to be re-developed the station has to undertake the mammoth job of moving their home.

The 979fm Fundraising Concert has been set up to raise much needed funds for 979fm’s upcoming re-location. The line-up features comedian Al Newstead (Al’s Music Rant), up and coming pop chanteuse Georgia Fields, former “King Of Pop” Dave Graney performing solo, Angie Hart backed by bouzouki driven instrumental band Blood Red Bird, and headlined by two-time ARIA Hall Of Fame member Ross Wilson with The Peaceniks.

Plus there’ll be heaps of CDs being given away. Come along and help support 979FM relocate their studios at The Corner Hotel, Richmond on Wednesday 23rd November. All proceeds go towards 979fm’s upcoming re-location.
