In October, 2012, CJLO 1690 AM was voted the “Biggest Champion of the Local Scene” at the CMJ College Radio Awards. As big supporters of the local music community, CJLO released a compilation of music called “You’re Related” Vol. 1: Montreal Artists Covering other Montreal Artists, and that was only the beginning. When a slot opened up in our program block, we decided to take things to the next level and dedicate an entire hour of radio every week to this amazing city and the people who make it great. And Champions of the Local Scene was born.
Champions of the Local Scene is an hour-long variety show that features Montreal musicians, artists, local personalities, community organizations, and promotes the CJLO community projects and events. Expect live sessions, interviews, and news from all parts of this fair city. Tune in every Wednesday from 6-7 pm for all things Montreal!
Produced in conjunction with the CJLO Magazine and News teams, Champs aims to have rotating CJLO DJs host the show each week, and will also be used as a learning tool for Concordia journalism students to gain experience in on and off-air radio production.
Do you have a project that is important to our local scene? Do you know a local champ who you think is deserving of air time? Please send them our way! You can tell us about your favourite Montrealers by emailing champs@cjlo.com.
