The Zone is extremely proud to announce The Dylan Willows Foundation for Music.
The DWFM was established to honor the legacy of Dylan Willows, a beloved voice in Victoria’s music scene and a tireless advocate for local artists. For over 20 years, Dylan brought music, stories, and people together on the airwaves and in real life. He had a gift for hearing potential in people—and helping them believe in themselves.
Today, we carry that mission forward.
In his spirit, DWFM empowers young and emerging musicians in Victoria through mentorship, education, and opportunity. We believe that music has the power to transform lives—and that every artist deserves the chance to be heard, regardless of background or circumstance. Whether it’s helping someone record their first demo, learn the ropes of the music business, or take the stage for the first time, we exist to nurture the same community Dylan so passionately championed—and ensure his love for music continues to echo into the future.
Dylan gave everything to the music. Now we give it back. 🎙️🎶❤️🔥
The second weekend of amazing music at the @Phillips.Backyard kicked off today, with the @BankesBrothers , @CurrentSwell , and many more!

And, we were thrilled to have Phillips invite us on stage to pay tribute to our brother, Dylan Willows, and announce the It's All About Love benefit brew (on sale September!), before one of Dylan's favourite bands in life and beyond . . . @BlackPumas . 🙏🏽

Zoner friends and family.
It is with the biggest broken heart that we tell you we've lost our brother, Dylan Willows.
He put up a hell of a fight against the cancer, after a lifetime of being an amazing radio host, local music crusader, and all around great human being.
We miss him indescribably, and we know you do, too. The Zone, and this city, will never be the same.
Despite his decades on the radio, Dylan was a very private person, and we ask that you continue to respect that privacy with regard to his family.
Any messages can be left here, or sent to [email protected]
Take good care of you. Hug your friends and family. It's all about love.
💗 the whole The Zone @ 91-3 fam

Congratulations to Kyle, the winner of Tank Tag!! He came in to pick up his $500 in fuel ⛽️… which at the price of gas today should last …at least a couple of weeks.
