Synopsis

Progcast is a podcast featuring interviews with Johannesburg bands and experts, covering various genres and specializations.To put it another way, Progcast is here to celebrate all that's live, loud, and local. Our mission; to drag the underground out of Jo'burg's smoky bars and into the light of exposure. We give the little guys a platform, celebrate those who've made it, and let the rest of the city know where they can see talent in action.
