Mission

To preserve the culture of texas music with a minimal impact on the environment. Sun radio creates and distributes solar-powered radio programming to non-commercial member stations with a focus on texas artists and americana music. We help foster new radio broadcasting careers for the residents of the texas hill country and provide 24-hour a day, free local radio for the communities we serve. Proceeds are used to expand local programming, in the creation of local jobs, as support for other non-profit organizations, to broadcast local musicians and events, and in funding new capital projects designed to increase our coverage area.
