Ham Radio is an alternative rock band from Johnson City, TN, blending raw emotion with melodic grit. Known for their “sad boy rock” vibe, their songs channel heartbreak, introspection, and small-town intensity. Drawing from the DIY scene of East Tennessee, Ham Radio is equal parts cathartic and catchy—music for late nights, long drives, and letting go.
Debut Album Tirades and Tragedies coming January 2026

Press:
"Ham Radio is able to take traditional emo/alternative rock and make it feel fresh, while still making it their own. Which is no easy feat in a saturated scene. Their unique genre-melding keeps the listener guessing while still satisfying that emo itch." - Ian Scene“This alt-rock band from Tennessee just released their newest single “Creatures Of Habit” which also features the legend that is Aaron Gillespe. I mean seriously, can you think of a better co-sign? ” - Ghost Killer Entertainment
