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.

Tik Tok: 2010s Recession Pop Dance Night
2010's DANCE PARTY ALERT!
Get ready to rewind to the era of skinny jeans, Tumblr crushes, and iPod Touch playlists - when the world felt upside down but the music absolutely slapped.
We're diving head-first into 2010s recession pop: the glittering, chaotic, high-energy anthems that carried all of us through the mess with eyeliner smudged and hands in the air.
Ke$ha. Gaga. LMFAO. Rihanna. Icona Pop. Katy Perry.
Breakups you live-tweeted.
Lip gloss, neon lights, and bass drops.
The hits that defined a decade of pure, shameless fun.
Grab your friends. Charge your phone (for the mirror selfies, obviously). And get ready to dance like it's 2010 all over again.
Let's rage.

Haley Johnsen
Singer & songwriter
Haley Johnsen is a Portland-based Americana artist blending alt-pop edge with powerhouse vocals and emotionally charged songwriting. Often compared to Brandi Carlile and Bonnie Raitt, she delivers heart-forward storytelling wrapped in bold, anthemic hooks and an electrifying live presence. Haley has toured with and opened for artists including Allen Stone, KT Tunstall, Joseph, The Talbott Brothers, and Liam St. John, and performed at the nation's largest festival. Summerfest, last year in Milwaukie, WI. Her 2026 NPR Tiny Desk Contest submission featuring her single "Lyin' Man" marks a bold new chapter of new music dropping May 2026. With millions of streams worldwide via the Virgin Music Group, sponsorships with Fender and Breedlove, and a headline slot at Seattle's Fremont Fair Festival this summer, Haley Johnsen is bringing the Pacific Northwest's freshest sound to the world, one unforgettable performance at a time.
Presidio
Presidio is a Portland-based duo featuring Gabriella De La Cruz on drums/vocals and Will Zesiger on guitar/vocals – the two build their sound around their ethereal vocal harmonies and intimate songwriting style.

Crooked Looks
Formed by lead vocalist/lead guitarist Sage Collette, Crooked Looks is a hard rock band that rides the wave of fierce, fuzzy sounds made popular by Queens of the Stone Age and fellow Pacific Northwest band Soundgarden. Light melodies and firm riffs paired with lyrics that emanate a youthful but ever-knowing and ever-partying spirit stream from this group's musical subconscious, and in a short span of time Crooked Looks have proven themselves worthy of a spot on the charts.
Ray Ramano
Ray Ramano sounds like shit but you should still give it a listen. Hazy textures, towering walls of guitar and a beat that leads the march, Ray Ramano sounds like the moment a beautiful memory starts to fall apart. What's not to love?
All Ages // 7 PM Door // Tickets $29
That 1 Guy
That 1 Guy is the solo project of Mike Silverman, a classically trained bassist who built his own instruments to expand what one musician can do onstage. His signature creation, the seven-foot Magic Pipe, combines bass strings, percussion and electronic triggers.
Silverman builds his live sets with looping, beatboxing, musical saw and vocals, creating an offbeat mix of experimental music, funk and rock. He has also collaborated with avant-garde guitarist Buckethead and played bass and saw on Tom Waits' Orphans: Brawlers, Bawlers & Bastards.
