Join Lucky Cat Radio Promotions at their Grand Opening show on Saturday, May 17th, featuring live music from Glass Elevator, The Hard Way, Z Kamp, and The Transport Assembly.

Lucky Cat Radio Promotions is a company dedicated to promoting independent music at college and noncommercial radio stations around the United States. The company was founded by former KAOS music director Melissa Suther, and includes Tammy Tillinghast (also a former KAOS music director) and graphic designer Anna Horvath.

Currently, Lucky Cat is working with Seattle label Broken Twilight to promote a handful of releases, including the record "Improbable Songs" by The Transport Assembly.

The Grand Opening show will include a live deejay and should be a lot of fun. Come on down to The Voyeur on 4th Avenue in downtown Olympia at 9 pm. See you then...
