In 2010, after 10+ years in the Philadelphia music scene, Jim Haas and Dustin Dellinger wanted to do something unique to help promote the scene. There’s some amazing talent in the area, but they were not getting enough exposure. At the same time, the two were fed up with the current FM radio stations. Long commercial breaks and the same 5 song selection seemed to dominate the airwaves. And playing 1 local artist each week is hardly “supporting local music”.
So with almost a zero budget, Gashouse Radio was created. An internet radio station that believes independent artists deserve as much attention as mainstream. While fully licensed by BMI, ASCAP and SESAC, Gashouse Radio plays an equal ratio of independent artists and underplayed “mainstream” to properly introduce listeners to new music.
In just 3 years we’ve managed to make some waves in the Philadelphia music community. We’ve built a strong presence in the community and an even stronger social media presence. Earlier this year our station started getting more web traffic than some of the FM stations that have been around for 40 years!
Gashouse Radio is looking to raise $5000 to update some dated/broken equipment. They also need the money to get new merchandise (stickers / t-shirts / posters / flyers). Finally, the station is looking for a completely re-designed website.
