Juan Night Stand With Local Broadcaster

The host of Free FM’s Monday night Latino rock radio show ‘Rock del Sur’ is looking for a “Juan night stand”. “That’s what Free FM have been saying – but I’m not that kinda guy” laughs Uruguayan broadcaster Juan Martinez, who will be hosting a special 12-hour radio marathon called ‘Expression – the Latin American Way” from 9pm Friday 5 April right through the night until the normal Saturday programming resumes at 9am Saturday.

‘Expression’ is a concept Juan’s been developing over the last year, to build on the success of Rock del Sur which enjoys a worldwide listenership and sees Juan interacting directly with fans from around the Spanish speaking world. “I’ve used Free FM, and its Access radio principles, to spread Latino culture – and to demonstrate that it’s more than fiesta and carnival clichés. Expression will focus on all the arts – cinema, theatre, literature, and of course music!” Throughout his non-stop 12 hour stint Juan will be checking in with a number of radio stations from back home – crossing live on air to stations in Argentina, Ecuador and Uruguay , and featuring numerous guests including some special live in-studio performances.

‘Expression – the Latin American Way’ airs from 9pm, 5 April on Free FM. Listeners can tune in across the Waikato on 89FM or around the world via their live stream at www.freefm.org.nz.

Free FM is a Community Access radio station providing broadcast facilities for the production of radio shows, by, for and about the local community.
