Coldplay To Inaugurate Entercom's HD Radio Sound Space

Entercom Thursday day announced that multiple award-winning band Coldplay will perform at the inaugural RADIO.COM Live event series in front of a small audience of KROQ (KROQ-FM) listeners. 

The performance will mark the grand opening of the new HD Radio Sound Space, a state-of-the-art entertainment hub which will host live broadcasts, music and custom events from the heart of Los Angeles’ Miracle Mile on Wilshire Boulevard. RADIO.COM, the exclusive digital home for all Entercom content across its portfolio of 235 stations, will stream the special performance live nationwide starting at 7:00 p.m. PT/10:00 p.m. ET on January 17.

“We’re honored Coldplay will kick off the RADIO.COM Live event series at the grand unveil of the HD Radio Sound Space,” said Pam Russo, Senior Vice President and General Manager, RADIO.COM. “We are excited to offer fans exclusive access to this once-in-a lifetime performance, live via the RADIO.COM app and website nationwide as well as on select HD Radio stations. This is the first of many events that we will be hosting live from the heart of the city and we are looking forward to giving fans everywhere insider access.” 

“We are excited to reveal the HD Radio Sound Space during our first RADIO.COM Live event. This unique project has taken our team almost two years to plan and complete,” said Jeff Federman, Regional President, Entercom. “The HD Radio Sound Space is situated right on Wilshire Boulevard. The huge fishbowl windows make it extremely accessible to fans, the community and commuters to engage with our talent, artists and partners.”

This inaugural 2020 performance – and the many more to follow throughout the year – is sponsored in partnership with HD Radio, the leading standard in digital radio broadcast technology. The HD Radio Sound Space program has been in existence since February 2017 and was originally located in the World Famous KROQ studios performance space on Venice Boulevard, that also launched with a grand opening performance by Coldplay. The partnership is a natural fit given HD Radio’s more than 4,200 digital broadcast programs on air. HD Radio enables listening for local radio stations across the U.S. with digital broadcasts offering extra local FM and AM channels for even more music, news and sports for radio listeners to enjoy with crystal-clear sound – all 100% subscription-free.
