XRAYFM Concert Calendar - 02/20/2026 Latest Episode
Have an event coming up you’re looking to spread the word about?
Send an email to info@xray.fm to see how we can help!
When emailing please include:
- Any relevant info about the event (dates/times, location, ticket links, info sheets etc.)
- What you're looking for from us, preferably in the subject or early in the email.* This could be things like being a media sponsor, paid underwriting packages, inviting us to attend, PSAs* AV services, getting an on-air interview, booking an XRAY DJ, having us be present there, etc.
Timeline: For those new to working with us, without an established event promotion relationship or agreement, we need to receive your submission at least three weeks prior to your event for potential inclusion on our events calendar, and preferably six weeks if you are interested in a radio spot about your event (i.e. underwriting). We are unlikely to consider last minute requests.
Please Note: We have a very limited capacity and unfortunately cannot accommodate all requests. The clearer your ask and the more obvious of a fit with our programming and/or mission, the more likely we'll prioritize it. We unfortunately cannot respond to every request, but welcome you nudging/following up with us to get it on our radar if it's a good fit and we haven't replied.
*Only nonprofits and/or things benefitting the wider community (such as something like demonstrations, disaster relief, mutual aid campaigns, etc.) are eligible for PSAs typically, with anything else being up to our discretion and typically done on media trade, paid campaigns, or as an act of good will because we feel strongly about something. All scripts need to be approved by us for our FCC compliance standards--even if a recorded file already exists.

The One Motorcycle Show is back for its 17th annual gathering, taking over the historic Zidell Yards from May 1st to 3rd, 2026. While the show has seen massive growth over nearly two decades, this year carries a unique weight: with the Portland Diamond Project eyeing Zidell Yards for a potential Major League Baseball stadium, the 2026 show marks a "last chance" to experience the event’s industrial grit at this legendary location before it’s gone for good.
Founded by Thor Drake, The One Motorcycle Show is an inclusive celebration of motorcycle culture, attracting everyone from seasoned builders to curious non-motorcyclists. In 2025, the brand expanded its reach by debuting at the AIMExpo in

XRAYFM is excited to partner with the Overlook Neighborhood Association for their annual Porchfest in 2026.
Mark your calendars for July 11th & 12th, 2026, as our Overlook neighborhood transforms its streets into a vibrant, decentralized arts venue for the fifth annual Overlook Porchfest.
At its heart, Porchfest is a grassroots celebration where neighbors generously offer their front porches, driveways, and yards as stages for local musicians. For families, it represents an unparalleled opportunity to connect with neighbors and experience live art in a safe, walkable environment.
This year offers a trifecta of community events. The music festival coincides with the beloved Overlook Yard Sale and Free Share weekend, as well as the Mississippi Avenue Street Fair. Residents can spend the day hunting for yard sale treasures and shopping local street fair vendors before spreading a blanket on a neighbor’s lawn to enjoy an open-air concert.
More information, map, schedule and artist applications can be found at www.https://overlookneighborhood.org/events/porchfest/
