The new path led us back to where we started!
Pattison Media is excited to announce that after a 2-year detour and some valuable lessons learned, THE PEAK is back at 102.7 FM as Vancouver’s original Alternative radio station!
THE PEAK, which moved exclusively to streaming and on HD2 in July of 2022, is famous for being the leader for the best Alternative music and for showcasing new and upcoming local and international artists. Now restored to its home on FM at 102.7, while also remaining on HD, THE PEAK will continue with the very best Alternative music from the 2000’s to now. Playlists will include artists like Muse, Green Day, Tame Impala, Coldplay, The Arkells, Death Cab For Cutie, Twenty One Pilots, Metric, Foster The People, and Foo Fighters.
Russell James, Program Director, “THE PEAK’s audience, even though they could only hear us on our stream and HD2 signal, has been impressively dedicated. So many people discovered their new favorite song playing for the first time on 102.7 FM and we want to continue that discovery on the radio and showcasing new bands in THE PEAK Live Lounge!”
Mark Patric, General Manager, “THE PEAK has always been Vancouver’s home of Alternative music. We couldn’t be prouder to bring it back to FM!”
THE PEAK promise to its listeners is more music every hour. When we do stop the music for ads, it will be for no more than 2 minutes. That means MORE of the music you love, every hour!
THE PEAK is for those who are looking for a radio station that will play the best in Alternative music, with hosts who will focus on events, concerts, Vancouver culture, and everything else that makes Vancouver great. We love Alternative music and the West Coast lifestyle! We invite you to listen!
102.7 THE PEAK is locally owned and operated by Pattison Media Ltd along with sister station 93.7 JR Country.
