RTRFM’s annual celebration of local music is on tomorrow, Sunday April 19th and only a few tickets remain.

The community radio station’s annual fundraiser is now in it’s twenty second year and has become a major event on the local music calendar.

Twenty bands will take to the stage in short 30 minute sets starting from 12pm.

On the line up this year is a wild variety of acts ranging from ’90s indie darlings The Rosemary Beads to the ever popular Abbie Maby.

Musical duo Gina Williams and Guy Ghouse will kick off the show. Last year their Noongar language album was lauded with critical acclaim.

Set in the idyllic surrounds of the Sommerville Auditorium, the annual event is renown as being one of the friendliest musical events with a chilled out vibe and picnic ethos.

The musical celebration raised essential funds for the community radio station which is home to Perth’s only LGBTIQ radio show ‘All Things Queer’.

Final tickets will be available on the door tomorrow but people are encouraged to head down earlier to avoid disappointment.
