On Saturday we paid tribute to the legend that is Denise Hylands (OAM)!
It was so heartwarming to see so many subscribers and fellow presenters (past and present) come through the doors of the Performance Space to celebrate Denise's remarkable 40 year contribution to Triple R, with a special Grand Ole Twang broadcast.
And what a stellar line-up of musos who performed in her honour, including the Twang House Band – James Ellis & The Jealous Guys, plus Hana & Jessie-Lee’s Bad Habits, Matt Joe Gow & Kerryn Fields, Henry Wagons, and The Linda Ronstadt Show (featuring Ella Hooper & Deadnecks). And, of course, who could forget the special guest announcements from Tim Thorpe of Vital Bits. It was a total riot!
You can check out more visual highlights here, and also listen back On Demand here.
Triple R would not be the same without Denise Hylands and neither would this city's country music scene! What an incredible contribution to the station and the community more broadly.
Thank you so much, Denise! And congratulations on 40 fantastic years of service to the R's. We love you!
