Blues Roots

Celebrate independent airwaves supporting local music, Tune In and Turn Up! First-time callers, long-time listeners from across the community radio landscape - Sounds Like Community Radio returns to Meanjin/Brisbane station 4ZZZFM, in celebration of their 50th year. 

Legendary ska, rocksteady, early reggae and Jah RnB group The Ska Vendors are celebrating 21 years of playing around Naarm/Melbourne and across Australia. To kick off the milestone, they've released two 7” vinyls - the first with Jamaican foundation artist Stranger Cole after a triumphant four-show tour late in 2022, and recently, 'Good Love Bad', a song written by Kerri Simpson, recently inducted into the Blues Hall of fame. 

This week's PBS Feature Album is the self-titled debut album from Milly Strange. 

Blending raw lyrical honesty with vivid imagery and a dynamic alt-rock sound, Milly Strange captures the tension between vulnerability and strength as she moves through pain toward renewal. The eight-track release is a cathartic exploration of grief, inner conflict, and personal transformation, tracing the emotional terrain of heartbreak, old friendships, and versions of the self left behind.
