Goodbye Matty J 🎤🎧

After 8 incredible years at Goolarri, our team has said a bittersweet goodbye to Matty J.

Matty has been such a valued and loved part of our team. He has been such a huge part of Radio Goolarri, from hosting ‘The Lunchtime Request Show’ to being a broadcaster, producer and station coordinator. His passion for radio, love for community, and support for local artists and youth have left a lasting mark on all of us.

While we’re sad to see him go, we are excited for Matty to begin a new exciting chapter with ABC Kimberley where we know he’ll continue to do amazing things!

Not goodbye just see you around Matty ☀️
