Everything you hear, see, and experience on KEXP is powered by you and your fellow music lovers. The podcasts, free Concerts at the Mural, live streaming videos of Pixies and Lykke Li … listeners who become donors do all that!

Please make your gift NOW before 6pm and tell us!I donate because this is the best place I know to keep up with the wonderfully creative and surprising emerging musicians that you showcase.

In the sea of crappy radio, KEXP is a bright shining beacon of hope that continues to pique my musical interest, causes me to listen to bands I never would hear elsewhere, and provides that "schedule of awesome" that even my kids look forward to every Friday night. Keep up the nice work! – Nick from Bainbridge Island, WA
