The 2007 Compilation
This two-disc collection, a rich – though by no means exhaustive – sampling of our city’s vibrant music community, serves up both rare treats from artists you probably know well (check the stunning Decemberists demo) and tantalizing bites from names you’ll probably want to get to know a lot better, like high school pop sensations The Hugs.
The compilation will is available for purchase ($7) at local retail outlets and online at CD Baby. Proceeds from sales of the album go towards funding the festival and the rest of our activities.
