About us

Mission Statement Radio Milwaukee seeks to reach a new generation of radio listeners on air, online and in the community with a unique and adventurous selection of music and short-form public affairs programming. Launched in 2007, it celebrates Milwaukee – its music, arts and culture, neighborhoods and community organizations. The station celebrates diversity and encourages collaboration and community engagement, while promoting a positive global identity for Milwaukee. Why Radio Milwaukee Radio can be a “town square” for a community, a centerpiece of music, cultural and social happenings. It can also break down barriers and bring people together. However, radio in general has become increasingly corporate and generic as it moves away from local interests, personalities and community. Radio Milwaukee believes that it is possible to inspire positive change in the community by presenting a unique blend of music and public affairs programming that raise the social awareness and engagement of listeners and online audiences.

    Radio Milwaukee is committed to celebrating our homegrown musicians and providing them with a space to share their talents. That’s why we’re thrilled to present our first-ever Lifetime Achievement Award at our premier event, Vinyl Comes Alive, on Thursday, April 18, at Turner Hall Ballroom. The award this year pays homage to Milwaukee jazz great Pastor Sam Belton. Pastor Sam has been a jazz music icon in Milwaukee for decades. He received his bachelor’s degree in music performance from the Wisconsin Conservatory of Music and his teaching certification in music education from Alverno College. For years, he was an educator, teaching at the Conservatory and Milwaukee Public Schools. He even developed a drum line at Washington High School. In addition to his role as an educator, Pastor Sam has been a jazz musician for years, playing in the orchestra and participating in the marching band as a student at Rufus King High School. He performed with many Milwaukee jazz greats like Manty Ellis, Berkeley Fudge, Jack Grassel, and Buddy Montgomery. His band, the Sam Belton Jazz Experience, continues to perform today, including at his restaurant, Sam’s Place Jazz Cafe, dedicated to his love for coffee, jazz, and entrepreneurship. Join us for a night of jazz and celebrating the musical legacy of Pastor Sam Belton. Visit https://shorturl.at/ikwGL to purchase your tickets today! #award #jazzmusic #fundraiser
