three7: Summertime in the mighty Northwest

Good music all over, and this summer is going to be nuts with all the events here in the northwest, starting with Foodwars 4! Tomorrow night, July 1st Ozone's Hip Hop Showcase is back collecting cans to feed local families for the fouth year in a row. Check out the press release:

 4th ANNUAL DRY-FOOD DONATION CAMPAIGN TO BENEFIT LOCAL FAMILIES




• Over 700 people are expected to show up this Friday, July 1st for Foodwars4, a canned food drive/ Hip-Hop festival benefiting Impact NW. The goal of the event is to raise 20,000 non-perishable food items to be donated directly to the bellies of hungry children via Impact NW’s Sun School Program which targets childhood hunger directly in local schools. 1 in 4 children in the Portland area regularly miss meals and the Foodwars campaign is designed specifically to supplement the available resources.
More than 20 local Hip-Hop acts are scheduled to appear including Portland icon CoolNutz. The idea of Foodwars is to see which artists can generate the most response from each individual fanbase to the question “got cans?”. 
Last year, in one night, the combined efforts of the community raised over 9,000 cans.

Ozone was in studio a few a while ago talking about the event which KZME is proud to be a sponsor of. You can check out the whole interview here, but here's a little behind the scenes video:

Ozone on Welcome to the Neighborhood

Anthony Sanchez (Runaway Productions) Philip Haleen (Taxidermy Records) and Greg Orman (BRH Production) spent some time at the station talking about Fire In The Canyon - a three day festival featuring some of the best local and national hip hop, rock and electronica acts. Check out the link here for a list of just some of the artists scheduled to perform. You can also catch the interview via podcast at the KZME website, or on iTunes.

Be sure to stay tuned to 107.1FM for more announcements as this summer is shaping up to be pretty amazing with festivals and new releases, and listen to KZME every Tuesday night from 9-11pm for Welcome to the Neighborhood.

Until next time,

Be blessed!
