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.

Towr's
Towr's is an indie folk rock band from Northern Arizona. At the heart of the band is duo Kyle and Gretta Miller. They've spent the last eleven years making music in their backyard studio and touring the country with their band and two kids. The music translates their memories, questions, heartbreak, and hope into raw, honest indie-folk-rock songs, driven by an alternative singer-songwriter pulse. The group is set to release their eighth studio album this coming March 2026. An intentional collection of poems made into songs meant as reminders and hopes in the quiet of morning or reflection of evening. The album will be celebrated in a series of shows along the West coast of the U.S in mid march 2026.

Frail Talk
Formed in the foothills of Northern Colorado in early 2020, Alex Woodchek and Cor Wright of Frail Talk are creating a blooming universe of squiggly indie music for squiggly people. Like the kind surprise of a backyard garden, their songs spring up from the dirt with folk roots, soft pop colors, and burgeoning lyricism ready to welcome every listener with daydream-love.
In August of 2024, Frail Talk released their sophomore album, Microspirit. Recorded in seven days of heat-sweat-friend-magic in Silsbee, TX alongside producers Hannah Read (Lomelda), Tommy Read and with the help of Tobias Bank (drums) and Nathaniel Riley (bass). With more attention to the emotion and substance of sound than ever but with the same honesty Frail Talk has always valued, Microspirit touches on the landscape of the queer divinity in all things, and world speaking through bugs, dogs, sunsets and friends.
The album itself has already had a life in the months it's been out, being featured on NPR Tiny Desk's Top Shelf, getting multiple features from their video "little al" and landing singles its first two weeks on Spotify's "Fresh Finds" and "Fresh Finds Folk" playlists.
Through the art of mashing folk-pop sensibilities with strange-space-synthetic-sounds, Frail Talk offers a landscape where one's self, surrounding, and experiences are as much a part of the songs as the music itself.
The future is bright for Frail Talk. It's all love now.

Timecop1983 is a producer from Eindhoven in The Netherlands. His style is best described as romantic and cinematic, inspired by the 80's. He is a one-man band, creating Synthwave music with (vintage) synthesizers and a computer, but he works together with other musicians and vocalists regularly.
He started making music when he was 12 when a friend gave him a floppy disk with Scream Tracker for MS-DOS. He didn't have any musical background and he never learned to play a musical instrument, but he was determined to learn to make his own music.
After years of experimenting and learning how to create music he got inspired by the movie Drive (2011) and he decided to create Synthwave. That's when Timecop1983 was born and soon his music was picked up by NewRetroWave on Youtube. He is now considered as one of the top artists in the Synthwave genre and he has released multiple albums, EP's and singles which have accumulated millions of plays on the major digital music platforms. All the while staying independent.
His music has been featured in various (short) films, including major productions like DC's "Legends of Tomorrow", Netflix' "Lucifer" and "Stream" from the producers of "Terrifier". He has also done several soundtracks for videogames and other productions. His dream is to create more soundtracks in the future.
Timecop1983 has played many international live shows, including gigs at the world famous Amsterdam Dance Event and he has done 4 US headline tours.

Oh my GROOVEness! I'm really looking forward to this party!
What
better way to unwind & lift our spirits than a night of music from
the GREATEST era of dance grooves?! Dance to Rarities & Familiar
Favorites from the likes of Stevie Wonder, The Three Degrees, Joe
Bataan, Cream, The Staple Singers and many others from a variety of
genres.
I suppose every DJ has a different idea for what The Golden Age of the Groove would be. As far as DJ Action Slacks
is concerned, the years 1968-1974 produced the greatest percentage of
infectious records that not only made people dance, they made them
think.
The Golden Age of the Groove is when music incorporated one, some, or all of the following characteristics:
Funky
Fuzzy
Buzzy
Trippy
Blippy
Soul-enchanting
Conscious-Expanding
Kaleidoscopic
Psychotropic
Hypnotic - these records grab your attention & won't let go!
8pm to Midnight
