Hit Network to launch new show for local artists

Sunday night Byron Cooke will launch a new all Australian music show across the Hit Network.

Hit AU will air at 10pm and will be the Hit Network’s "home for hot Australian music – new and old school – and the go-to show for discovering upcoming Australian artists."

A different co-host will join Byron each week, with a chance to get to know Australian music personalities a little better and their music on-air and via social media. Hit AU’s FANSNAP will be a new weekly segment that will let fans ask artists questions directly via Snapchat.

Byron Cooke, also anchor on Fox FM’s Fifi & Dave breakfast show said: “To know I’ll be able to give artists their first commercial radio airplay across the country is a massive honour for me and I know just how huge it will be for these artists as well”.

Samantha Jade will join Byron as co-host this Sunday night for Hit AU’s first show. Melbourne based pop-rock group, Masketta Fall (pictured), will be first up for FANSNAP.
