Events

Have an event coming up you’re looking to spread the word about? 

Send an email to events@xray.fm to see how we can help!

When emailing please include: 

1. Any relevant info about the event (dates/times, location, ticket links, info sheets etc.)
2. What you're looking for from us, preferably in the subject or early in the email.* This could be things like being a media sponsor, paid underwriting packages, inviting us to attend, PSAs* AV services, getting an on-air interview, booking an XRAY DJ, having us be present there, etc.
3. Who this event is for, so that we can place it appropriately on our schedule. If music, let us know the general genre/style. If non-music, what topics will someone that goes to this care about? 

Timeline: For those new to working with us, without an established event promotion relationship or agreement, we need to receive your submission at least three weeks prior to your event for inclusion on our events calendar or newsletter, and preferably six weeks if you are interested in a radio spot about your event (i.e. underwriting). We are unlikely to consider last minute requests. 

Please Note: We have a very limited capacity and unfortunately cannot accommodate all requests. The clearer your ask and the more obvious of a fit with our programming and/or mission, the more likely we'll prioritize it. We unfortunately cannot respond to every request, but welcome you nudging/following up with us to get it on our radar if it's a good fit and we haven't replied.

*Only nonprofits and/or things benefitting the wider community (such as something like demonstrations, disaster relief, mutual aid campaigns, etc.) are eligible for PSAs typically, with anything else being up to our discretion and typically done on media trade, paid campaigns, or as an act of good will because we feel strongly about something. All scripts need to be approved by us for our FCC compliance standards--even if a recorded file already exists.

Portland based DJ Ambush (News With My Fiancé) and DJ Klyph (Welcome to the Neighborhood) bring an evening celebrating Golden Era and inspired hip hop to the White Eagle. Come through for this FREE, 21+ event and hear classic cuts and remixes while grabbing a hot plate and cold beverage. You can dance if you want, but this night is about the head nod.

Candi Carpenter

Candi Carpenter is a 5,665 year old extraterrestrial vampire space witch AND recording artist. Even though they’ve had plenty of time to find fame and fortune, it’s still just THAT hard to be an independent artist.

In 2024, Carpenter released their Alt-Pop debut, Demonology, a full-length album produced by Carpenter, Peter Shurkin, and Alden Witt, described as a “powerfully raw listen” by Maximum Volume Music. Carpenter’s passionate, self-examining songs center around highly personal stories of growing up in the Midwest and leaving Christianity.

Carpenter has attracted collaborations with artists including Brandy Carlile, and praise from publications like Rolling Stone, calling Carpenter “a devastatingly direct singer with… an axe to grind;” while To The Point Music states, “Candi Carpenter is one of those once in a lifetime talents.”

Demonology has garnered millions of views on social media, along with being featured on Spotify’s “New Pop Picks,” “Fresh Finds Pop,” Tidal’s “Rising Pop,” Amazon Music’s “Fresh Pop,” “Acoustic Pop,” and “Breakthrough Pop” and SiriusXM Hitbound and many others.

Carpenter is currently recording and touring in Summer 2024.

YOU are invited to contribute to making my next dance party the best night ever! I'm conducting an interesting, inclusive experiment for the August edition of FLAME!

I believe music to be the great unifier, bringing communities together to bond over our commonalities.  I've always aimed to make my events something to be enjoyed by everyone.  That's why I want YOU to select the dance songs for my next dance party. 

Here are the guidelines:

1) The recording must be from the years 1950-1980

2) I must have in my VINYL collection

3) Your request must be made PRIOR to the day of the dance party

4) I'm not restricting genres, but my collection mostly consists of soul, country, 50s-70s"oldies", classic rock, disco, funk, jazz, blues, r&b, rockabilly, gospel, and Latin. 

5) You can request up to THREE songs

TRY ME!  If you request it and I have it, I will play it.

This has the potential to be REALLY fun and cathartic!  PARTICIPATE!

Send your requests using the contact form at djactionslacks.com

What song lifts your spirits? Who will you choose? 

Will it be The Supremes? David Bowie? Aretha? Parliament? Tammy Wynette? Little Richard? The Monkees? Grace Jones? T-Rex? Fleetwood Mac? Bill Withers? Suzi Quatro? Neil Diamond? Ella Fitzgerald? Heart? Foreigner? Some kind of show tune from Rita Moreno?

I can't wait to find out!!!!
