From the wide world of 107.1 XRAY-FM, we are DJs Cheyenne and Aaron, Kiki, Nick (aka Crambone), and Ryan, bringing you the Sounds of Saturday Morning live each week. We host Reverse Couple Skate from 8-9 am Pacific, Music for Neighbors 9-10 am, Mr. Ghost Goes to Town 10-11 am, and Radio Bandolero 11 am – noon.

XRAY’s Saturday morning sounds are a sonic ecosystem of genre-defying and genre-defining gems and discoveries; indie, soul, and lo-fi for your hi-fi; weird and wild pop and hot jazz; unsung masterpieces and obscure ear worms. Our Saturdays wouldn’t be the same without XRAY, and XRAY wouldn’t be the same without you.

We’re committed to the XRAY community, now more than ever. Our spring awards fundraiser was cancelled this year because of the pandemic. Just about everyone’s life has changed, but the music continues. We hope you’ll join us in this Spring Fund Drive. Help us keep the music flowing over the terrestrial and digital airwaves all around this crazy world. Radio is yours.

XRAY has an ambitious goal of raising $85,000+ in the next couple weeks to keep us going strong. Membership starts at only $10/month ($5 for students, seniors, and starving artists). It includes cool perks (check out the XRAY socks!), entries into giveaways for tickets or products from sponsors, and even a chance for our Saturday DJ team to win a prize.

Will you all help reach our goal by becoming a member of XRAY and donating $10 per month?

If you can, call (503)233-XRAY from now through Friday, October 30. Or go online at xray.fm/donate and say which of us Saturday DJs sent you.

Anything you can give helps, so don't let the cost of a monthly membership stop you. Thank you for supporting the community that gives us a unique way to share the music we love. We appreciate you all so much and hope that you listen to Saturday mornings on XRAY, and find something new to love while you're there. We sure do.

The mass consolidation of media has a profound effect on what we see and hear on a local level. It leads to a decline in support for local artists and local venues, promotion of community advocacy, in the ability to engage civically with our government and those who seek to be elected to it. 

XRAY changes that. And this year has made that more important than ever before. 

This year, while the world has been in turmoil, we've been busy

• giving back to local artists who've lost gigs due to COVID-19

• lifting up hundreds of nonprofits and Black-owned businesses with free spots on air

• educating our community about the privileges they have and how to support their neighbors with our Annual Juneteenth & International Women's Day Teach-Ins

• launching Portland's only daily local news podcast to keep our community in-the-know while apart

• supporting the ongoing civic advocacy, education, and functioning of City Club of Portland when no other radio station would

• interviewing 100+ local candidates (more than any other media outlet) to ensure democracy doesn't die in the distance. 

• and bringing joy and connectedness to the people of Portland.

We are proud to be independent and driven by the purpose of amplifying the best and most distinctive of Portland. Our resources are directed toward supporting the people who support us, and that includes you. By becoming a supporting member of XRAY, you are adding to the resources that help amplify Portland, and Portland’s own artists, venues, activists, innovators, educators, and the community members who make this city run. As a listener named John recently said, "I'm really grateful to live in a city with XRAY." And we're really grateful to live in a city with you.
