At 989FM we’ve always known of the importance of First Nations voices to be heard on radio, that’s why at the end of 2017 we decided to create The Original 100 a playlist to be played on the 26th of January the playlist encompasses a 100 song from Aboriginal & Torres Striate Islander people from around the continent that speaks of our struggles and triumphs.
