SOUNDCLASH this Saturday at the Orange Peel
posted: August 20, 2009
This Saturday night, get yourself over to the Orange Peel for a showcase of the region's finest electronica artists. AND you'll be supporting the new community internet radio station, Asheville FM.
AshevilleFM is sort of like college radio, but all grown up. The volunteer-based, grassroots station was envisioned earlier this year as an outlet where community members could broadcast locally based music and news. The space has been rented (behind Wizzy's), the studio being built: Check it out at www.ashevillefm.org. Chip in monetarily (think of it as a fund drive without the boring chatter) at the all-ages Orange Peel benefit. Music from Doom Ribbons, IO, J.R.R. Foolkiller, Aurascene, Kimathir, Liz Lang, sys:ex and Pomme de Terre. Saturday, Aug. 22 (9 p.m., $8 advance, $10 doors. Info: www.theorangepeel.net or 225-5851).
