The Official Station for 80's Rock & Heavy Metal
About Us
80’s Rock Radio - Broadcasting from Tucson, Arizona
We started our social media page in July 2018, as a fan tribute to 80’s classic rock, heavy metal, hard rock, glam metal and arena rock. During the global pandemic lockdown in May 2020, we launched our first broadcast. In the midst of confusion, fear and uncertainty, we were inspired to share the music that was a huge part of our youth in the 80’s.
From the decade that started the mosh pit, rock groups of the 80s, lead singers in spandex, MTV music television, metal bands with big hair and headbangers worldwide, WE ARE 80’s ROCK RADIO! We love playing the popular 80s rock songs from the best 80s rock bands. We hope you will enjoy the music with us.
