RADIO SYLVIA LIVE
FROM HAMBURG TO THE WORLD.
FOUNDED IN 1977.
We started as a pirate station in 1977. Since then we stand for free, alternative and non-commercial radio.
AGAINST THE MAINSTREAM.
AGAINST THE NORM.
We say NO! to the omnipresent mainstream rubbish. We focus on Punk, Metal and Alternative.
RADIO AND ROCK MUSIC.
OUR PASSIONS.
We are a team of long-time radio and music enthusiasts hailing from Germany, the UK, Ireland and the USA.
ON AIR: -
Radio Sylvia is a free, alternative and non-commercial radio station and can look back on an eventful history. After the foundation in July 1977, we were active as a pirate for many years on FM as well as long, medium and shortwave. In January 2009 we returned and are now broadcasting legally from our studios in Hamburg via internet and shortwave.
The station is run by a dedicated international team of long-time radio and music enthusiasts. Our aim has always been (and still is today) to provide an alternative to the omnipresent musical mishmash.
