Today marks a milestone in rock ‘n roll history as celebrated rock station WNEW marks its triumphant return
on-air (102.7 HD 2 in New York) and online. The legendary station has been reborn for the passionate rock music fan in the spirit of WNEW-FM’s commitment to exposing the best new artists.
Completely updated to reflect its historical influence on today’s contemporary rock scene, the revolutionary new WNEW.com features recordings from the dawn of the album era in the late 60s and early 70s through today, as well as music from the most promising emerging artists yet to be discovered by the masses.
The modernized WNEW.com will also offer the listening audience a complete interactive and social networking experience through the station’s website and CBS Corporation’s Last.fm. Using
these two online portals, fans can listen on demand, share feedback about the former and current station, join dedicated groups, meet fellow WNEW listeners and become a part of the station’s “staff.” Staff members will have the opportunity to program and participate in the presentation of the station and its website through a series of on-air and online initiatives including blogs, concert reviews, music forums, and artist profiles.
