What could be better than a brand new single, from a favorite Portland artist? How about one named after our very own city! Pancake Breakfast released this single, “PortlandtownUSA,” just a couple weeks ago and have been hearing praise from all corners already. The Oregonian called PortlandtownUSA a “100-percent irony-free ode to Portland.” A song you’ll love, about the city you’ll love, from a band you love. Pancake Breakfast is on the road and will be back in town later this month - check out their website for current dates!

General Information

KZME is a non-commercial radio station dedicated to broadcasting local music, supporting local arts and culture, and sharing information about east county public affairs.

As a non-commercial station, KZME does not air advertising and is supported by listeners, business partners, special events and various grant funding.

MetroEast Community Media, along with a coalition of community groups, received word on May 6, 2008 that its application for a non-commercial, educational (NCE) radio station had been approved by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC).

MetroEast Community Media administers eight cable channels and offers video production workshops, providing individuals, community groups and non-profit organizations a way to discuss community issues through video. As our parent organization, it provides administrative assistance and technical support, namely in the production of promotional spots for our media partnerships.

The KZME transmitter will be located on Mt. Hood in Brightwood and the studio is  located in Gresham. A translator was purchased in 2009. The broadcast area reaches most of the east metro and Portland metro areas.

On December 11, 2010, KZME radio announced a new programming partnership with Mt. Hood Community College to serve the Portland metro area, including east county on 107.1 FM and KMHD HD2. That partnership ended on October 15, 2011.

KZME was issued a license in the fall of 2011 and is in the process of finalizing arrangements for use of a tower in order to launch our main frequency, 91.1 FM.

On October 16, 2011, KZME radio started a new broadcasting service with the help of All Classical Public Media by using KQAC HD2 to fully program content on 107.1 FM.

Here's a list of how we will define 'local':

Music written by local artists, performed by local artists, played in a local venue.

Music played by local artists in a local venue.

Music written by local artists, played by local artists in a non-local venue.

Music played in a local venue by non-local musicians.

Music that was influenced by a local musician.

Music that was recorded in a local studio.

Music distributed by a local label.

Music that 'sounds' like it came from Portland or belongs in Portland.

Music, that in some way, reflects local values, history or landscape.

In addition, it is our intention to play music not already well represented on the local dial.

S O N G > Laurel Brauns -"Doldrums "

This song by Laurel Brauns (also known as part of the band Sweet Harlots) comes from her 2011 solo album “House of Snow.” The Portland Mercury called it “a beauteous solo record…destined to become an evergreen.” We agree, and hope you’ll listen to this excerpt from the record and find her just as enchanting as we do! And don’t miss Laurel’s next local performance, at the Edgefield Winery on February 11th.
