​Recently returned to Bendigo with a view to enjoying a nice balance of work, rest, and play as well as ongoing involvement in Music and Entertainment.
 
As a musician and Performer, I’m always looking to find new, interesting, clever and fun music and songs to add to my ever growing collection.

​
My preference leans toward the ‘Country’ / ‘Hillbilly’ sound where most of my favourite discoveries have been found. Great originals, Interesting covers of both modern and old songs, humorous subject matter and tunes that inspire a  ‘toe-tappin’, knee-slappin’  good time.
 
I believe it is my duty to share these discoveries with the greater community, and Community radio is the perfect place to do just that.

​In 1993, I completed a Bachelor of Arts (Media Studies) degree at Edith Cowan University in Perth.  During my studies, I learnt on-air and production skills at 6RPH Information Radio in Perth.  During my time at Information Radio, I met wonderful people and hosted the sports show along with my twin sister until 1994. 
 
From 1993-1997, I ventured into Radio 6NR in Perth and further learnt reel to reel production skills and did the graveyard shift on many occasions. 
The other shows at Radio 6NR include;
Host/Producer – Women’s Cricket Show
Co-Producer – Good Afternoon Magazine
Panel Operator – Lawn Bowl’s Show
Host – Graveyard shift
 
2003-2009 – Host/Producer (with my twin sister) – The Sport’s Lounge on JOY Melbourne 94.9FM.  The show won the CBAA Sports Broadcasting award in 2008.
I also hosted the Breakfast Bar (on occasions) and the Drive time shift at JOY Melbourne 94.9FM. 
 
2009 -2015 – Sports phone correspondent (as I moved back to Perth at that stage) – Saturday Morning Magazine on JOY Melbourne 94.9FM.
 
My sporting passion started at a very early age and I feel privileged that I am able to extend my love for sport in broadcasting. 
 
The most exciting aspect of radio is engaging part of an audience who normally wouldn’t be into sport but still loves to listen to ‘Sportsvox’.  Bendigo is an exciting sporting region and ‘Sportsvox’ is here to engage the community and be the ‘Voice of the Sporting Community’

Mick Griffin began hosting the program ``Rock Bottom`` at Phoenix FM on Boxing Day 2011.
``Rock Bottom`` is without a doubt  one of the loudest programs on Central Victorian airwaves, playing as it does a wide ranging mix of Hard Rock, Punk, Sleaze, Garage and Stoner Rock…The brief for ``Rock Bottom``, which airs Sundays 7.00 to 10.00PM, has always been that of PURE ROCK & ROLL!

Mick also hosts  ``Queens of Noize`` every Thursday evening  10.00PM to Midnight, a program dedicated to airing the very best, and very loudest  in female and female fronted Rock acts from all over the world…FEMALE FUELLED ROCK & ROLL!
​
Both of these programs proudly boast a large quotient of music from independent acts the world over.
Bitten by the Rock & Roll bug at an early age and ingrained with a life-long restless and insatiable appetite for fresh new music (of the loud variety), Mick has been a constant presence on the live music scene for many years as a promoter, photographer, biographer and interviewer. The best way to sum Mick up is that of an all round Rock & Roll carnival barker

I have a passion for music and listening to community radio, partly due to my visual impairment. I have a part time DJ and sound business also. I have just completed the Diploma of IT at BRIT, and have several certificate 4’s in websites and IT. I studied cert 4 in Music Industry also.  Recently, I really enjoyed updating and maintaining the website for Phoenix FM , and I am very grateful for the opportunity and experience this has given me. I hope to be a presenter soon as I love Enya and many different music styles. I am 25 years old and wish to support Phoenix in any way I can, as well as pursuing a career in IT and web.
