I'm an accountant who moonlights as a DJ and wish it was the other way around...
About Eric Wiersema
I am a lifelong radio and music lover! As a kid, I would listen to the radio for hours and record my favorite songs on cassette tapes. I even recorded myself pretending to DJ but *hopefully* any of that evidence has long been destroyed! I discovered CHIRP back in 2016 when I was looking for a productive outlet for my music obsession, and I have been volunteering ever since. I started DJing back in 2020 and I am still in awe that I get to live out a childhood dream every time I get behind the mic!
What You'll Hear on Liberation Frequency:
I am pretty open to all types of music and willing to give any music I enjoy some love regardless of genre. My personal music tastes lean toward alt-country, emo, folk, garage rock, metal, pop-punk, punk, post-hardcore, post-punk, and shoegaze. The on-air segue that I am most proud of is following Lana Del Rey with Slayer. My show is a wild ride so buckle up and enjoy!
