Chris Cobcroft is a journalist and musician who does his best by strange music of all sorts but especially misbegotten and underground Australian music as presenter of the Community Radio Network's nationally-syndicated New Releases Show. Graduating from UQ with first-class honours in media and communication, specialising in music programming in community radio, he's spent five dogged years toughing it out as music co-ordinator at the only place he knows that'll allow him to put absolutely anything he damn-well-likes on air, the legendary community radio 4ZZZ.

He sat down for a session with us a while back and talked all about community radio with us: how to get involved, having a career in community radio, how to get your band airplay and much more.
