Providence Media Becoming Hey Rhody Media Co.

What's in a name?
Providence Media Inc. has been a publishing staple in Rhode Island since 1975. Our team has changed over the years, but our commitment to bringing the best of the Ocean State to local readers has never faltered. Our company began with East Side Monthly and over the years added Providence Monthly, SO Rhode Island, The Bay, and Hey Rhody to our line-up of publications, eventually combining East Side Monthly with Providence Monthly creating one publication for the capital city. Our publications cover Greater Providence, South County, the East Bay, and statewide audiences. All the while we’ve been building our digital presence online at HeyRhody.com, plus Instagram, Twitter, Facebook, and a newly minted YouTube channel (more on that later), allowing us and our valued advertisers to meet Rhody readers where they are. And for those who have left the state, subscribe today – to stay connected while helping to support local lifestyle journalism.

Introducing Hey Rhody Media Co. 
We thought it was about time that our company name reflected our years of growth and our statewide coverage. What better way to do that than reflecting our popular statewide monthly publication, Hey Rhody?
