RTRFM’s RADIOTHON PARTY RETURNS IN 2022, TAKING OVER NORTHBRIDGE ON 6 AUGUST FOR ITS ANNUAL, CITY-SHAKING CELEBRATION

RTRFM’s major fundraising campaign Radiothon kicks off with a bang in 2022, as the local community station celebrates its most important time of the year with a four-venue, six-stage takeover of Northbridge on Saturday 6 August.
Local bands and DJ collectives descend on The Bird, Ezra Pound, The Rechabite and Astral Weeks to mark the beginning of RTRFM’s essential, annual subscriber drive with the Radiothon Party 2022.

Storming the main hall at The Rechabite are a selection of some of the city’s finest acts. Catch sets from punk rockers Lauren and The Goodfights, the sweetly melodious Nectar and jangly indie-poppers Young Robin, and witness the avant garde grandeur of Big Orange and the moody song-smithery of New Nausea. Plus catch DJs Rhian Todhunter and Mark Neal from RTRFM’s Out to Lunch between sets and afterwards.

On the Hello Rooftop and Goodwill Club, the team from Garbage TV have curated a crew of selectors to get the building shaking including featuring sets from Midnight Elevator, Twinks With Threatening Auras, Yassi Fi, JD, Ono Records, Kailyn Crabbe b2b Mintox, Yikes, Matt Perrett and Ben Taaffe.

At The Bird you can enjoy the magical folk of Heathcote Blue, Ribs, Julia Wallace, Oceanique and Sienna Rebelo, who will each lull you into local music bliss.

Next door at Ezra Pound, Sealed Section have curated a special collection of selectors including Britt Bro, Girl Twink, Netwerxx, Ephacy and Sealed Section DJs.

And over at the city’s newest haunt Astral Weeks, catch DJ sets from RTRFM’s El Ritmo and Ambient Zone collectives.

Subscriptions, donations and ticket sales to RTRFM during Radiothon are essential to raise funds for the ongoing operation of the station. Get your tickets early as this will sell out. Gold Subs and Companion Card Holders free. Held on Whadjuk Noongar Boodja with respect to elders past, present and emerging.
