Rogers Radio introduces listeners to an exciting new radio station with the launch of SONiC at 107.5 Chilliwack, 92.5 Abbotsford, and 104.9 Vancouver.   SONiC can also be heard online and through mobile devices.

SONiC launched  with a pledge to play 10,000 songs in a row with no commercial interruption. The station will feature artists such as Katy Perry, LMFAO, David Guetta, Marianas Trench, Lady Gaga, Lil Wayne, Drake, Eric Solomon, Black Eyed Peas, Pitbull, Ke$ha, Down With Webster, and Chilliwack's These Kids Wear Crowns, among others.

"SONiC speaks to a younger audience and represents a commitment to the next generation of listeners who will help grow the future of radio in our markets," said Geoff Poulton, Vice-President and General Manager, Rogers Radio, British Columbia. "There is a huge appetite for new music, and this format will better serve listeners in our communities."

The SONiC Promise is a vow no other station can offer - a commitment to SONiC's listeners to discover and play new music first, and always run fewer commercials.

Additional details about SONiC's on-air talent and programming lineup will be announced in the coming weeks.
