In the summer of 2006, KVRX began broadcasting Local Live from a new facility. While we miss the peculiar ambience of our previous basement studio, we're excited about the new space. The new studio is shared by KVR-9 (Texas Student Television) and KVRX, and offers the combined amenities of a television and radio studio. This opens new opportunites for programming, including high quality music production with video, and joint TV-radio broadcasts. The possibilities are limited only by the dedication and creativity of the station's staff and volunteers.

Are you a UT student? Want to get involved in music / video production? Contact volunteer [at] kvrx [dot] org
