WE NEED OUR STUDENT FEES BACK TO KEEP OUR PROGRAM!
At this time we are collecting signatures from students and listeners to help keep our station on air. Last year we lost our fees and thanks to our reserve fund we were able to keep programs this year. February 12th 2010 is the fee hearing and we will be presenting in front of the Board the purpose for our existence for Boise State University. Our station provides tools to practice radio production, music promotion, programming, editorial and support for underground artists around the world to be recorded in the CMJ charts.
If you are a student, listener, fan or support the arts within the Boise community; your signature will help keep the opportunity available for future music leaders and promotion for artists.
The petition form is available at the receptionist desk at our office on campus. Stop by and visit us or email us to find out how you can help!

The Black Keys have been making waves through the rock world with their refreshing work ethic and awesome modern blues rock. Much to the surprise of many, they have recently teamed up with Hip Hop producer Damon Dash and some of the industry’s most famous rap names (Ludacris, Raekwon, RZA, and Mos Def, just to name a few) for a project that many critics thought would fall flat on its face like similar projects that came before it. However, indie rockers and rap heads rejoice – the Blakroc project does anything but fall on its face.
Chuck Ragan- “Gold Country”
by Dustin Verburg
“Gold Country” is the new album from Chuck Ragan, former singer/guitarist in the Gainesville, FL based punk band Hot Water Music. Hot Water Music was an extremely powerful force in emo and post-hardcore, adored by both fans and critics. To their credit, HWM gave credibility to the term “emo” when “emo” emerged in the popular lexicon as a dirty word. Hot Water Music was an unusual band, so it might come as no surprise that ‘Gold Country’ is a very unusual record.

Borrowed from Buzz Bands:

Twenty-three-year-old Taylor Goldsmith crafts elegant folk-pop gems that reveal a remarkably centered songwriter who feels the currents surrounding him but won’t get swept away by any of them.
