This community college station has been around since 1965, but really came into its own when it helped spawn grunge music in the early ’80s. From KGRG’s website: “Our “Today’s Rock” format developed in the winter of 1988/1989. It started when students began playing local unheard of music which exploded into the now famous bands like Green River, Mudhoney, Mother Love Bone…and a small band from Aberdeen known as Nirvana. Maintaining the ideals of today’s rock, we continue to play new music from many genres that speak to our community.”
