Student Radio Network Awards Finalists Announced For 2023

Incontestably the most inclusive and sonically adventurous of Aotearoa's major music awards, the first round of finalists have been revealed for the 2023 SRN (Student Radio Network) Awards. Dive into the rundown of much deserved shortlisters below (we'll keep the list updated with further announcements) and tune in on Saturday 4th November, when the presentation will be live-streamed (the live-chat was lots of fun last year) and simulcast on member stations 95bFM, Radio Control 99.4FM, RadioActive.FM, RDU 98.5 FM, and Radio One 91FM — "brought to you with help from NZ On Air". There would of course be no SRN Awards without student radio, so do your bit to support 95bFM's fundraising drive and head along to the all-star Save The b event at Auckland Town Hall on 20th December, details HERE.
