London-based radio station W!ZARD has picked up local show Live from Melbourne to add to its internationally broadcast program grid.
Live from Melbourne is a weekly show that celebrates Australian music and up and coming artists across the country. Featuring from some of Australia’s most celebrated talent, as well as showcasing new music weekly, the show is a lively look at what’s happening in the music industry both in Melbourne and nationally.
Hosted by Serena Ryan and Bernadette Morley with a weekly segment with Australian music industry legend Molly Meldrum, Live from Melbourne will also feature live acoustic performances and interviews from guests each week. Listeners have the opportunity to see and hear great talent each week as the team will broadcast live on Facebook and Snapchat.
James Gilmore, Managing Director of W!ZARD Radio Media says, “We are thrilled to have Live from Melbourne joining us in London. There’s a real appetite for new international music over here right now, especially the new artists who, without shows like Live from Melbourne, we wouldn’t get to hear about.”
Producer Yael Cohn, herself an industry veteran is excited by the prospect of this new show coming out of Melbourne, “It’s not often you see music shows that are dedicated to uncovering new talent and celebrating our artists’ successes at home and overseas. Live from Melbourne is a fantastic opportunity for new artists to get their music heard across the globe and we can’t wait to see what’s out there for us to uncover’.
Season One of Live from Melbourne launches on Friday 9th September at 10pm.
