SMI Celebrates 2 year partnership with NWCZ Radio on 5/17

Over 3 years ago seattlemusicinsider.com was launched. Originally the site was set up as a central location for my content and social media links.

SMI has continued to evolve and add additional contributors who share the passion for music and Northwest artists.

in conjunction with the launch of the website, I launched the SMI Radio podcast. Like the website the podcast has continued to evolve from its crude beginnings. Since 2010, SMI Radio has featured interviews and music from hundreds of Northwest, national, global and eclectic artists who perform around the Puget Sound.

One year after SMI Radio launched, the show was picked up on a then fledgling home-grown, Tacoma based internet radio station, NWCZRadio.com. Like SMI, NWCZ has built a global audience.

Not only did joining NWCZ add legitimacy to the SMI show, The partnership provided a great opportunity for us to reach a larger audience. Reaching a larger audience means that the artists that we cover gain greater exposure, and that is a beautiful thing.

On April 8th, NWCZ Radio announced their partnership with The Harmon Tap Room Underground with a promise to bring you the best in Northwest bands once a month (The third Friday of every month) live.

This Friday (5/17/13) at 9:00pm at The Underground in Tacoma, Seattle Music Insider will celebrate 3 years of podcasts and our wonderful two-year partnership with NWCZRadio.com.

Our good friends from Setlist Music,  Perry Acker and Ben Union will be joining us for live sessions, and interesting conversation, which will air at a later date. We have supported these artists from the beginning of SMI and they have been a huge supporter.

Since our humble beginnings. Critical Sun Recordings has been a big supporter of us as well. We have enjoyed covering some of their artists such Furniture Girls, Darius Willrich and more. Critical Sun artist In Cahoots will also be joining us for this special event.

I will be hosting the show along with my friend and NWCZ founder Darrell Fortune.

If you are interested in attending the sessions in person it is $5.00 at the door. For more information go here.
