The pulse of the Pacific Northwest music scene
Mountain Rhythm Collective · North Bend, WA
Welcome to the first issue of The Mountain Wire — MRC's newsletter for artists, music lovers, and anyone who believes the Pacific Northwest has some of the best music in the country.
The idea is simple: one email, once a month, with the shows you should know about, the sessions we've been filming, and a few things from the industry worth paying attention to. No noise — just signal.
A lot has been happening at MRC. Alpenglow Studio is open and recording, Si Sessions has 23 artists filmed and counting, and we just launched the Gig Map — a tool to help bands find and manage venue relationships anywhere. More on all of that as it grows.
This is a community-first operation. If you have an upcoming show, want to be featured, or just want to connect — hit reply. I read everything.
Let's go.
Have an upcoming show? Reply to this email and we'll add it to next month's issue.
We've been filming live sessions beneath Mount Si since last year — raw, cinematic, and rooted in place. Every artist brings something different to the mountain. Our latest sessions are up on YouTube.
