Red Bull Radio Celebrates Detroit Music With Weekly Music Programming

The station honors Detroit's music legends and up-and-coming artists by dedicating every Sunday to music from The Motor City

Red Bull Radio announces a new weekly celebration of Detroit's diverse local music scene, starting October 1. Throughout the last decade, Red Bull has held a presence in The Motor City by recording in-studio from Detroit, celebrating the city's iconic electronic music festival, Movement, and broadcasting live from a custom-built downtown studio two years ago. Now, Red Bull Radio is further investing in the city's music scene by bringing the best of The Motor City to listeners around the globe, with programming that features the brightest up-and-coming local artists alongside hometown heroes who helped shape the sounds of Detroit.

As the birthplace of Motown, soul and techno, Detroit has produced legends such as Stevie Wonder, Aretha Franklin, Juan Atkins, Alice Cooper, Madonna, and Eminem; needless to say, the sounds of Detroit have influenced music on a global scale. Inspired by the city's captivating and deep music history, Red Bull Radio is committed to shining a light on Detroit's raw, authentic talent and unique sound with the world every week.

"Known for its infamous sounds of Motown, jazz, gospel and techno, Detroit's atmosphere is so ripe with ingenuity that one can almost feel the creativity in the air," said John 'Jammin' Collins, world-renowned DJ and superlative record producer of Detroit. He continued, "The Motor City has produced some of the world's most brilliant singers, musicians, producers and DJs, all of whom have brought international acclaim, awareness and respect to a city that has struggled, maintains and continues to prosper. Red Bull Radio is committed to continuing this tradition of exposing more of Detroit's creative community by introducing new and fresh shows with a diverse lineup of DJs/producers as hosts."
