88.9 WXGC - Classic Alternative

01/12/2025

KEXP-FM (90.3 FM) is a non-commercial radio station in Seattle, Washington, United States, specializing in indie music programmed by its disc jockeys. KEXP's studios are located at Seattle Center, and the transmitter is in the city's Capitol Hill neighborhood. The station is operated by the non-profit entity Friends of KEXP, an affiliate of the University of Washington.[3] Since March 19, 2024, KEXP-FM's programming has been rebroadcast over Alameda, California–licensed KEXC, which serves the San Francisco Bay Area.

As well as daily variety mix shows featuring mostly alternative rock music, KEXP hosts weekly programs dedicated to other musical genres, such as hip hop, Afrobeat, punk, ambient, alternative country, Latin music, and world music.[4] The station also regularly hosts live, in-studio performances by artists. Alongside its analog transmitters serving Seattle and San Francisco, the station offers an online live stream, a real-time playlist with DJ notes, and an actively maintained YouTube channel.[5]

Founded in 1972 as KCMU, the student-run station of the University of Washington, KEXP gained recognition for its influence on the regional music scene. It was the first station to air grunge bands like Nirvana and Soundgarden in the late 1980s.

While REM wants to sit on their ass and not play, the 2nd greatest jangle rock band are still playing. Lead singer of The Connells Doug has wrestled with health issues but a few years back on tour, and a band of mates that wouldn't trade him for the world, he is sounding more like his old self. REM said in an interview they don't want to play again because it will never be as good as it was. That is a copout. None of us are as good as we were. Man up and rock!=. The Connells sound about 80% of their prime after re-starting from scratch but in this clip we find the band back in the groove.

Sonark Media hosted The Connells live at The Barn on April 1st 2023. This is a unique showcase of some of their most popular songs here at Sonark in Hillsbor...

Trent Reznor from NIN was not expecting Johnny Cash to record one of his songs and was blown away by a Johnny Cash version of Hurt. Reznor praised Cash's interpretation of the song for its "sincerity and meaning", going so far as to say "that song isn't mine anymore". In 2002, Johnny Cash covered "Hurt" to commercial and critical acclaim. Cash died in 2003 at age 71
