Radio Ron

About Me

Radio Ron is a man who wanders the bleak plains of Christchurch City,
New Zealand. Every day he breaks the mold of his conservative
surroundings; armed with a transistor radio, he sings as loud as his
voice will carry. Ron is not a conventionally proficient singer, however,
he continues from day to day, desperately blasting whatever tunes he
can into the oppressing grey sky. This man inspired our title with his love
for music and his whimsical voice.
