About This Station

8CCC is a volunteer-driven community radio station based in Alice Springs, Northern Territory, broadcasting on 102.1 FM to Alice Springs and Tennant Creek under the slogan "Many Voices One Frequency." The station features a strong commitment to local music—around one-third of its programming—and operates as a registered cultural organisation and charity, offering accessible media training and supporting live music and live-streaming production for community events via its social enterprise. Its website highlights the "Local Connections Vol.1" compilation album, a celebration of Northern Territory local music featuring over 12 original artists, as well as a current feature album, *To The Ground* by RONA., the electronic project of Kaytetye producer Rona Glynn-McDonald from Mparntwe (Alice Springs). That album explores themes of frequency, movement, and connection to Country, blending electronic music, story, and place for both headphones and dancefloors. Broadcasting in English, 8CCC presents a diverse, community-driven mix of music and talk reflecting the local desert community.
