ABOUT ASTRAL RADIO
Astral Radio is Bristol's premier underground online radio station, dedicated to the more experimental corners of rock music. Born from the city's vibrant music scene, we serve as both archive and amplifier for the sounds that shake foundations and expand minds.
OUR MISSION
We exist to showcase the finest hard rock, psychedelic, and doom music emerging from Bristol and beyond. Through our curated broadcasts and live sessions, we aim to connect artists with audiences hungry for sounds that push boundaries and defy conventions.
WHAT WE DO
Astral Sessions invite bands into our studio space to capture raw, intimate performances that reveal the true essence of their sound. These sessions strip away the distance between artist and listener, creating a direct conduit for musical expression.
Astral Live takes our mission beyond our walls, filming and broadcasting concerts from Bristol's most exciting venues. We document the city's thriving underground scene, preserving powerful moments and sharing them with a global audience.
