“What a blast it’s been, growing with Double J,” says presenter Zan Rowe.

“Some of my most treasured convos have lived on Double J Mornings; from D&Ms with Janelle Monae, to wild rides through Thundercat’s life; masterclasses in song-writing from Beck, therapy with Robyn, and tantric sex talk with Neil Finn.

“Best of all, the Double J Fam have strapped in and wholeheartedly come along for the ride. What a joy.”

The station launched in 2014 with a live broadcast hosted by Myf Warhurst at Melbourne’s Kelvin Club.

It is Australia’s #1 digital station with a 5 city weekly reach of 264K people.

“We’ve had a blast talking to you about our favourite songs, artists, genres and eras!” said Double J in a statement.

“Sometimes things got heated and friendships were tested, but it was all for the love of the music.”
