Kiama Community Radio welcomes John ‘Coco’ Comber as he brings two exciting shows: 'The Old Schoolyard' and 'Coco's Outback Club.' 


These programs will delight listeners with a diverse selection of music spanning decades and genres, curated by Comber himself. Join us as we tune in to 'The Old Schoolyard,' where Comber takes us on a nostalgic journey through classic hits and forgotten gems. 



And don't miss 'Coco's Outback Club,' where Comber shares his passion for country and roots music, transporting us to the heart of the Australian outback with every tune.


Comber’s journey in radio began in 1978 when he was appointed the first music director of Sydney's 2WS. Over the years, he held various roles, including the position of music director at 2DAY-FM. However, it was his time as the afternoon announcer at Nowra's 2ST during the 1980s and 90s that earned him the affectionate nickname, Coco.



After a hiatus from the radio industry, Comber returned in 2015 as a member and presenter of Shoalhaven Community Radio. Hosting programs under his old moniker, Coco, he quickly became a beloved figure among listeners.
