We're back! After a short break from the airwaves, we return with a new name: Indie 102.3.
The name might be new, but the mission isn't. We're still committed to being Colorado's new music discovery platform. And we're still committed to local artists -- tightening our focus by playing their music more often to reach more listeners and highlighting them on our Colorado music program, The Local 303.
All the familiar voices of OpenAir are still here, along with some new voices and shows to bring you the best in new music.
The shows you'll hear include:
Morning Show
Set your alarm a little earlier as Jeremy Petersen returns with The Morning Show at a new time, 5 a.m. Join Jeremy Monday through Friday at the break of dawn for your musical wake up, your commute survival companion with new music, music news, and A Cover with Your Coffee.
New Music Show
Jessi Whitten brings you an hour of brand new music you won’t be hearing anywhere else. From indie rock, alternative, hip-hop, R&B and everything under the sun. If it's new, you’ll hear it here first. Tuesday nights at 9 p.m.
