  • Connecting Through Music
    CONNECTING THROUGH MUSIC Public Radio Music Stations Serve Audiences, Artists & Communities Across America Spring 2019 New Orleans jazz musician Roderick Paulin and his band perform live on WWOZ’s Traditional Jazz with Leslie Cooper. Photo credit: Michael E. McAndrew CONNECTING THROUGH MUSIC ABOUT THE noncomMUSIC ALLIANCE The noncomMUSIC Alliance, which produced this report, celebrates noncommercial, nonprofit, local public radio’s role in connecting artists with the communities that enjoy and support their music. Established in 2018, the Alliance’s primary aim is to bring diverse noncommercial music constituencies together, amplify their voices, and inform others – particularly public policymakers – about the need to support public radio’s role in local communities across the United States. As this report describes more fully, the noncomMUSIC Alliance highlights five values public radio music stations share: Discovery Public radio is a space where listeners can find vast troves of new American music, classical traditions, and contemporary music from around the world. Curation Public radio music stations are one-of-a-kind community tastemakers that reflect and shape listeners’ love of music. Preservation Public radio stations provide the airtime and live performances that sustain and enable historic and regional music traditions, and develop audiences for American genres like jazz, bluegrass, and zydeco. Performance Public radio is a driving force in the local music scene, connecting musicians and listeners on air, on stage, online, on video, and on-the-go. Community Locally operated and community-based, public radio stations tailor their programming and services to meet community needs. noncomMUSIC Alliance Leadership EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR: Michael Riksen, Vice President, Policy & Representation, NPR ADVISORY COUNCIL: Brenda Barnes, CEO, KING FM • Shannon Connolly, Senior Vice President, Music, NYPR & General Manager, WQXR • Abby Goldstein, General Manager, WYEP • Val Hoeppner, Executive Director, WMOT • Nick Kereakos, Sr.

  • Why Fund Ampers?
    What is Ampers? • An association of 18 independent community radio stations. • Each station is locally managed and programmed by and for their communities. • Stations create their own programming and do not rebroadcast programs from one main Twin Cities station. • The stations primarily serve rural, minority and student communities not served by traditional media with programming in 12 languages. • All are licensed as non-commercial educational stations. Why Fund Ampers? • Stations provide in-depth information about local government, educational and health news, safety concerns, and provide local artists access to the airwaves. • The stations are extremely efficient relying heavily on volunteers. • Ampers stations help to train more than 1,300 students each year. • Stations provide critical emergency information in some cases providing local officials with the only immediate opportunity to disseminate lifesaving information. A North High student announcing A band performs live from “Studio K” KSRQ’s “Saturday Morning Barn Dance” on KBEM/Jazz88 (produced by students) on Radio K What is the difference between Ampers and Minnesota Public Radio? There are two types of public radio in Minnesota, the Minnesota Public Radio (MPR) network and the smaller local community radio stations. The smaller grassroots community stations created the Association of Minnesota Public Education Radio Stations (Ampers) in 1972. KAXE’s “Ranger in My Heart,” a documentary on the Iron Range.
