I really, really, really love radio. Maybe you have heard that about me. The only thing I ever wanted to do from the time I was about ten years old was work in radio. What, exactly, I wanted to do in radio did vary a bit, from being the first female Cubs play-by-play announcer to DJing at my favorite local top 40 station to running a really cool, independent radio station.

Anyway, I eventually settled on that last one, and that's CHIRP. We're now well into our second year on the broadcast airwaves at 107.1FM, and we're apporaching ten years of streaming at chirpradio.org (how?!?).

This work means something to me, and if you care about indpendent artists, independent music, and independent media, I hope it means something to you as well. Please make a tax-deductible gift today to support this work we do. Thank you so much.

CHIRP is a truly a listener-supported, volunteer-driven station and it is due to the generosity of fans and supporters like you that we keep bringing local artists, new music, and Chicago happenings to Chicago and beyond. Please make a gift supporting our spring fund drive so we can continue to bring you great music and events!

No commercials. No voice-tracking. No algorithms. Just great music brought to you by true music fans.
