Brando
Host - FreeformBrando brings an unpredictable, deeply curated mix of music that defies genre constraints and algorithmic formulas. As a DJ on Afternoon Freeform, Brando crafts sonic journeys that move through underground gems, global rhythms, deep-cut rock, ambient textures, and everything in between. Every set is a handpicked experience—designed to surprise, challenge, and immerse listeners in the power of human-curated radio.
“Music is a reminder that we’re not alone—that our voices, stories, and rhythms are connected. Public radio is a space where diverse sounds and ideas come together, creating something greater than the sum of its parts. When we share, listen, and uplift each other, we all rise.”
