Introducing Joe, the A.I. Announcer with Local Smarts

Introducing “Joe”, the new Local Sounds A.I. radio announcer, who can be heard on all Local Sounds stations from 6am Monday to Sunday. Joe utilises cutting-edge technology to scan event and tourist information across the region in real-time, keeping listeners informed about upcoming festivals, farmers markets, and tourist attractions. Whether it's a live music performance or a local art exhibition, Joe ensures listeners are always in the know about what's happening in the region.

"Joe allows us to be a hyper-local resource for our listeners, providing them with up-to-the-minute information about events and attractions, all woven seamlessly into our broadcast." says John White, Co Owner at Local Sounds Radio.

But Joe's talents don't stop there. Joe can also deliver real-time weather updates, ensuring listeners are prepared for whatever the day throws their way. “We’re currently teaching Joe how to interpret traffic and other useful local information, adding another layer of localisation to the listening experience”, says White.

Local Sounds Radio's dedication to innovation extends beyond Joe. They remain steadfast in their original commitment of promoting local artists. By integrating local music into their playlist alongside the greatest hits, they provide a platform for regional talent to reach a wider audience.

"We're passionate about supporting the arts and tourism across the regional Australia," concludes White. "We play the music of local artists every hour and we promote their upcoming gigs on air and via our socials. The music originating out of the regional Australia is top quality and it's as good as the greatest hits we play. Our listeners love learning about the artists in their region and the way we blend it into our playlist.”
