Phoenix FM is a community radio station serving the areas of Brentwood and Billericay, England. It was formed in 1996 and has broadcast nine 28-day restricted service licence broadcasts on FM. The station's presenters include local snooker hero Steve Davis and former Carter USM guitarist/songwriter Les "Fruitbat" Carter. Phoenix FM was also one of the first community radio stations to provide a streaming internet service, in 2001.
In 2004 the station applied for a new Community Radio licence, with a decision due to be granted by August 2005.
The station's broadcasts have provided a valuable platform for local bands looking to gain airtime. Inme was one band whose first radio play and interviews were on the station.
