CBC Radio 3 is a Canadian digital radio station operated by the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation, which plays a relatively freeform mix of indie rock, indie pop, alternative hip hop, folk, country and electronic music.
The service, which launched in 2005 as a station on Sirius Satellite Radio, evolved out of programming on CBC Radio 2 (now CBC Music), which also simulcasted Radio 3 on Saturday and Sunday nights from December 2005 until March 17, 2007. The station was formerly available online from CBC's website[2] and iTunes Radio, but geographical restrictions were in place to prevent access outside of Canada. Radio 3 is no longer heard on terrestrial radio or through official webcasts, but is still available through its satellite radio operations. The French-language equivalent to Radio 3 was Bande à part.
An article on Nerve.com, published in October 2006, called CBC Radio 3 "possibly the world's best radio station".[3]
In October 2022, CBC Radio 3 was dropped from SiriusXM, but remains available as a playlist through CBC Listen.[4]
