Classic Rock 101 is Vancouver's classic rock radio station. Our mission: Classic Rock 101 plays the greatest rock ‘n’ roll of all time. We are committed to providing fun, entertaining personality radio to our listeners and exceeding the expectations of our clients and community.
Rock 101 is brimming with the ultimate music from the ‘60s, '70s and '80s, alongside the finest newer music from classic rock artists.
Tune in to Classic Rock 101 and you’ll be tuning in to Vancouver’s home for U2, The Who, Pink Floyd, Supertramp, Led Zeppelin, The Beatles, Rolling Stones, Van Morrison, Jimi Hendrix, R.E.M., The Police, The Guess Who, Fleetwood Mac, Rush and more.
Between the records, Classic Rock 101 features on-air personalities who grew up with the music they play on the radio - a team of veterans with pride and passion for rock ‘n’ roll and the artists who created it. Bro' Jake in the morning, midday host Robin Larose, afternoon hosts Dean & Hatch and bringing you into an evening of classic rock, Mr. Steve Dunbar. Listening to these guys is a lesson in rock ‘n’ roll and a break from the everyday grind.
Classic Rock 101 has great promotions and contests too, often surrounding Vancouver's number 1 Morning Show Host Bro' Jake ... including The Guy Garage, Jake’s Jet and The Ultimate Jam hosted by our very own Graham Hatch.
