JOIN US IN APRIL…

Ohm Radio is heading back to High Water Festival, April 18–19 🌊

We’re proud to be part of one of Charleston’s most vibrant music weekends, connecting our community to the artists, energy, and stories that make this place feel alive.

Want to be part of it?
We’re still looking for volunteers to join the Ohm crew. It’s a fun, high-energy way to support the station while being right in the middle of it all. Volunteers help staff beverage tents, and Ohm receives a portion of the proceeds—so your time directly fuels independent, community-powered radio.

Spots are limited and morning shifts fill quickly—jump in and join us!

STAY TUNED FOR TICKET GIVEAWAYS!

Open Mic Night

@ THE WHALE

The Whale isn’t just a craft beer spot tucked inside The Refinery’s creative campus — it’s a Lowcountry gathering place where craft brews, bold flavors, and community collide. 

Hosted by Luvie Smith, good energy guaranteed.

All levels welcome. Sign up on site — come early to snag a set.

About

OHM RADIO is Charleston’s first community, commercial-free radio station! We have been on the air 24/7 Since August 1, 2015. Ohm Radio will broadcast music by local, independent, and legendary artists. We’ll spread the good word about what local entrepreneurs, non-profits, and social groups are doing to enhance our community. We will unite Charleston’s diverse community of voices with original and creative programming.

The Meaning Behind Our Name

In physics, an OHM is a unit of resistance, and this OHM Radio campaign is about resisting corporate “piped-in” radio and promoting local, noncommercial radio that is genuine, relevant, and reflects who we are as a community.
