I'm not mad, I'm just disappointed.
Haha, no, I'm not disappointed, you are all perfect gems. And you've all been so good about supporting the Chicago Independent Radio Project, which is such an important force in the Chicago msuic scene. With your help we've been able to draw attention to great local bands and artists like Half Gringa, Neptune's Core, and NNAMDÏ (and countless others!) as well as national acts like Cheekface and Dane Terry and international acts like The Hu and Marina Herlop (excuse me, I'm giving myself The Feels about all this great music).
Anyway, the point is, it's that time again, and we need your donations. Once again, I'm putting my money where my mouth is (right next to the microphone, haha)… I'm ponying up a $500 matching grant. For every dollar you donate in my name, I will donate a dollar, all the way up to my $500 goal. (If you want to get one of our thank you gifts, you'll have to go the main fundraising page… instructions are at the bottom of this page.)
It's a real privilege to be a part of this amazing station with these amazing people. Ad astra per musica!
XOXO
