Audioasis: Top Ten of 2007

Every Saturday night, KEXP presents three hours of purely Northwest music with the longest running local show on the radio, Audioasis. Join Audioasis Producer John Richards, Associate Producer Sharlese Metcalf, and hosts Abe Beeson, Hannah Levin, and Lisa Wood for the best of local music in all genres, live performances, and remote broadcasts. Every first Saturday of the month, Audioasis broadcasts from the High Dive in Fremont as it promotes and raises funds for a different local charity. Join KEXP and Audioasis for the best of Northwest music, new and old, ’cause as we all know, music always starts in Seattle.
