## Tuning into Rennes: Discovering Canal B, the Voice of Local Culture
Rennes, a vibrant city in Brittany, France, pulsates with a unique energy. Beyond its historic architecture and bustling student life lies a rich tapestry of independent voices, and one of the clearest and most engaging belongs to Canal B (Radio Curieuse 94.0). Broadcasting from its home at 6 cours des Alliés in Rennes, this associative radio station has been a cornerstone of the local soundscape for decades.
Born in nearby Bruz in the mid-1980s amidst the burgeoning free radio movement, Canal B quickly established itself as a vital platform for alternative voices and perspectives. This era, marked by a surge in independent media, saw Canal B carving its niche by offering a unique blend of music, cultural programming, and community engagement. The station's commitment to local voices and diverse content resonated with the community, and its popularity steadily grew.
