Boogaloo Radio isn't just a station - it's an extension of The Boogaloo pub, a venue infamous in the music industry and frequented by the likes of The Pogues, The Libertines, and Oasis. The idea was simple: take the incredible community, culture, and iconic characters already inside the pub and share them with everyone. It’s the world's first and only 24/7 radio station broadcasting live from a pub.
To bring their vision to life, the team needed a broadcasting solution that didn't require a technical background. They weren't radio engineers, but rather pub owners, musicians, and industry veterans. The platform had to be incredibly easy to learn and operate for a diverse team of presenters and interns without the "faff of commercial radio station software."
"We chose Radio.co because it's the only radio software that makes it easy for people like amateurs or people that aren't familiar with radio tech or software to open their own radio station."
