Backstage Radio Backstage Radio
Backstage Radio is for the unsung heroes of live events — the crew. Whether you’re rigging lights at 3am, tuning a PA, calling a show, or loading out in the rain, we’ve got the soundtrack that gets it.
Built by people who’ve toured the UK in splitter vans and done more overnight get-outs than we’d care to admit, we know the job, the hours, and the coffee addiction.
Expect bangers, deep cuts, backstage banter, real industry talk, and shoutouts that actually mean something.
Backstage Radio is powered by Show Works Ltd, supporting the people who make the magic happen.
Our mission is simple:
To entertain, connect, and champion the people who keep the show on the road.
We’re here to build a community for the backstage world — whether you’re in lighting, sound, stage management, rigging, wardrobe, video, automation, or anything in between. We celebrate the craft, the chaos, and the camaraderie of life behind the scenes.
Check to see if you’re in our transmission area for DAB+. Don’t worry if not, we’re still available online, app and on smart speakers!
Backstage Radio is built by crew, for crew — and we want you to be part of it.
Got a show idea? Want to host a slot? Fancy sharing your tour tales or backstage hacks? Or maybe you’ve just got a banging playlist you think others should hear?
We’re all ears. This is your station — get in touch and help shape it.
Backstage Radio is licensed with PRS/PPL to stream music online and on DAB+.
