About KWMR:
KWMR is a vital resource for building and sustaining community, standing ready to serve in times of emergency, airing locally relevant information and entertainment to listeners, creating a forum through which every voice can be heard. Our station offers instruction and experience in radio production and broadcasting skills to members of all ages.KWMR broadcasts on 90.5 out of Point Reyes station. The signal reaches northern Petaluma and into Sonoma County. KWMR has over 100 volunteer programmers that bring listeners talk, literature, and music programming 24 hours a day. KWMR flipped the switch and went live on May 2nd, 1999 and is going strong. KWMR streams on www.kwmr.org, and has a mobile app for IOS and Android platforms "KWMR Radio."

KWMR lost their Federal funding from the Corporation for Public Broadcasting in July, leaving a big hole in their budget (26%). It is important that folks who live, play, or love West Marin know about this important resource that brings emergency information to listeners when necessary, and just plain fun the rest of the time.

About The Space Orchestra:

On a cosmic night in April 2018, 13 talented musicians from North Bay united to revive a musical milestone, captivating a sold-out crowd as they paid homage to the legendary concert of March 1970 at New York’s Fillmore East. This iconic show, led by the brilliant songwriter Leon Russell and featuring the extraordinary vocals of Joe Cocker, was immortalized in the live album Joe Cocker: Mad Dogs and Englishmen. Today, Petaluma’s The Space Orchestra stands as an eclectic ensemble of rock, blues, and country all-stars, renowned for their remarkable contributions to the Bay Area music scene.
With a dynamic configuration that includes a three-piece horn section, four mesmerizing backup singers, and a powerhouse rhythm section, The Space Orchestra masterfully replicates the iconic sound of the original live album, performing it in its entirety, from side A to side B.
Fronting the band, singer-songwriter Sebastian Saint James embodies Cocker’s lead vocals and electrifying stage presence, breathing new life into timeless classics. With each performance, the band takes the audience on a journey through unforgettable hits by legends such as the Rolling Stones, Isaac Hayes, Otis Redding, and Bob Dylan. Notable highlights of their set include lively renditions of “Delta Lady,” “Space Captain,” “Feeling Alright,” and a joyous version of “She Came in Through the Bathroom Window.”
The Space Orchestra continues to build its legacy, creating a beautiful blend of nostalgia and musical exploration that resonates deeply with audiences, ultimately ensuring that the spirit of this rock-and-roll classic lives on.
Don’t miss your chance to see the Space Orchestra light up the universe at Griffo Distillery.
