Good tunes, pizza and beer, and a good cause…

Established in 1996 by Andrew Jervis (Ubiquity Records), The Friday Night Session is a Bay Area institution with a loyal following both locally and worldwide. Playing a consistently vibrant selection of electronic music over the San Francisco airwaves, The Friday Night Session draws on the links between contemporary music and more vintage sounds and features exclusive unreleased cuts, DJ mixes, in-studio guests and ticket giveaways to the best local events. It’s a great way to find out about new music, and either wind-up your week or get into weekend mode. The Friday Night Session runs from 10pm until 12pm every week on 90.3 FM KUSF in San Francisco, it’s also broadcast live on the net at live365.com. Playlist and shows are available in streaming format on fridaynightsession.com. The show is currently hosted by San Francisco DJs Andrew Jervis (A&R, Ubiquity Records), Mikebee (electronic music buyer for Amoeba, San Francisco), Tomas Palermo (writer, DJ and former editor of XLR8R magazine) and Cez Gonsalves (Just Good Music).

Previous guests include: Gilles Peterson, Kruder and Dorfmeister, 4Hero, Alice Russell, Koop, DJ Vadim, Windsurf, Quantic, John Tejada, Jimpster, Fauna Flash, and King Britt.

So why a benefit? Unfortunately KUSF doesn’t run on good will alone, we need the $’s! So the good folks at Jupiter are allowing us to invade Berkeley and make a little $ for the show. Come on down, get some good eats, hear a Friday Night Session selection and show your support. The event is free, with the DJs donating their earnings to the station. We’ll take donations on the night or even just “hellos”, whatever you can afford.
