    RadioActive is KRBD’s Summer Member Drive! It kicks off on July 25 on-air and ends on August 15 with a PARTY in our PARKING LOT!

    One year ago this month, federal funding was eliminated for public radio. This community rallied and raised nearly $78,000 to KRBD on the airwaves. We never went dark. Not for one day. Not for one minute.

    And that’s because of people like YOU.

    This summer we’re doing it again and we’re making it bigger and better than before!

    When you make a donation between July 1 and August 13, 2026, you will be entered into a drawing for a Virgin Voyages Caribbean Cruise for Two! Sustaining members are automatically entered to win. Click here for more information.

    We’ll be celebrating our success on August 15 with RadioActive Community Day in the KRBD Parking Lot. There will be:

    Live Radio All Day with special guests and visitors
    Free Burgers and Hot Dogs
    Community Organizations and Vendor Tables – Interested in tabling? Email linda@krbd.org
    Parking-Lot Games like “Pass the Mic” and “Best Radio Voice” and a Hot Pepper Eating Contest that will blow your mind!

NEWS & YELPS

Andy Koch (pronounced “cook”) moved to Bellingham from Seattle in the fall of 1973 to attend Fairhaven College. It was meant to be a temporary move.
His motto now, he says, is “old enough to know better; too late to stop now.”

A heartfelt thanks to all for keeping track of our goings ons, and making it out to shows when you can.
We could not do it without your support.
Our latest CD OFF LEASH! Featuring Fat James, is available at shows and is a perfect gift for the Blues Lover on your list.
