Colorado Public Radio independent music station Indie 102.3 is celebrating its first anniversary since re-branding. Along with a shifted music focus the station broadened its geographic footprint in Colorado.
Indie 102.3’s re-brand last year involved shifting the focus to elevating Colorado-based music, musicians and experiences. In April, Indie 102.3 began airing in Colorado Springs at 102.1 FM (and 1490 AM). In the Vail Valley, Indie 102.3 will operate at 88.5 FM, which transferred ownership from Rocky Mountain Public Media to CPR in June.
“The expansion of Indie 102.3 to new areas of Colorado comes at a moment when exploring local music through live shows is nearly impossible,” said Willobee Carlan, PD. “When we launched a year ago, we didn’t know just how important musical escape would be in 2020. We’re thrilled to bring our commitment to music discovery to a larger group of Coloradans.”
