Tonight was the debut of Radio Cascadia, featuring alt, singer songwriter, and some folk artists from 2000-now (not right now, but close enough) with a primary focus on the myriad of artists from the North Olympic Peninsula. We'll also feature artists in the same genre from the land we romantically call Cascadia--Washington, Oregon, and the not 51st state, British Columbia.   Each show ends with a poem about the PNW, including this one.   Its different from Notes by Northwest because of the local focus.

In a feat that said could not be done, the premiere show featured all artists from the amazing little town of Port Townsend, or songs about the city that at one point was bigger than Seattle.  In many ways, we still are.
