So happy they expanded to the Bay Area after living in Seattle for a few years!


I've been listening to them on KEXP.org for a decade or more now.

It's a little odd tuning into "the morning show" in the afternoon, but it's good radio, and so much better for discovering music than any of the alternatives here.

6 Music can be as good, but it never quite got over the "death" of the UK indie music scene and sometimes feels more like a tribute act to it's former self. As I speak the heaviest tracks in rotation are from Bon Iver and Doves, and while both are great acts, they're not new bands. Overall the discoverability is way down, and fairly often I'll find new music, even music from UK+Ireland, via KEXP, rather than from the media here.


give Do You Radio a try, former NTS guys went out on their own, all available on mixcloud so you can flick through bits you don't like

Radio Paradise is also still pretty good for discovering new music..
