The noncomMUSIC Alliance celebrates public radio’s role in connecting musicians, performers, and artists with the audiences who enjoy and support their music. We are an alliance dedicated to boosting the work of noncommercial public radio stations as an essential component of music discovery, curation, preservation, performance, and community.
WHY NONCOMMUSIC?
Noncommercial music celebrates heritage and innovation in genres ranging from classical to jazz to the bluegrass, roots, alt-country, and other eclectic sounds of Triple A found only on public radio.
