Tonight's homegrown music: 3 Bands Drop 3 New Singles

How to Play Live or Get Your New Single on RadioACTive

  • PLAY LIVE: RadioACTive features homegrown music every Friday with Al, the Punk Rock Farmer. Sometimes, we've even been able to showcase singer-songwriters and bands Monday-Thursday on the show. As a result, we are always looking for homegrown talent. Start here: KRCL Live Band Inquiry.

  • DROP NEW SINGLES ON RADIOACTIVE: Send us your broadcast-ready audio files, along with a voice memo introducing you, your band, the song, and any other info you think listeners might like to hear. Feel free to include socials or a website -- just don't sell anything for $9.99 -- in your intro. Email both files to radioactive@krcl.org.

  • KRCL LOCAL MUSIC SUBMISSIONS: Only for Utah musicians and bands to upload your music to the KRCL Music Department. Start here: Utah-Based Local Music Submission Form.

Rallies & Resources Spotlight (full list here): 

  • Mar. 19: Utah Organic Farming Summit: Shaping an Organic Future, Together | 8:30a-5:00p @ Clubhouse on South Temple, 850 E South Temple St., SLC. RAC has the deets on this, too!

  • March 31: Last Day of “Seeds of Memory: Cultivating Heritage, Healing the Land.” Jennifer Williamson of Slow Food Utah shares details of the campaign, which celebrates biodiversity on farms, in gardens, and at schools.

    • "From the Sea Island Red Pea that survived the Middle Passage to the Carolina African Runner Peanut that nearly went extinct, each seed in our heritage kit carries the weight of history and the promise of resilience. When we plant these seeds, we honor ancestors. When we save them, we protect the future."

    • We’re giving FREE seeds to school gardens to help kids experience the magic of growing food by planting Ark of Taste seeds! Want to help get more seeds into the hands of children? Make a suggested $10 donation to expand seed access to more schools! Check out our 2026 Plant a Seed map!

Aldine's Urban Farm Report: Future Craft Farm Collective

Future Craft Farm Collective is Rachael Hall and Soni Scheig’s passion project, where a love of carefully curated textiles, friendship, crafts, and, of course, food all connect. Rachael and Soni met in the summer of 2022 on a small urban farm in Salt Lake City. Their love of utilitarian cycling, sewing, cooking, and community involvement made them fast friends. 3 years later, they started a farm and haven on a half-acre in Glendale.

  • Future Craft Farm CSA 2026: Both full and half shares are available every week for 20 weeks, June-October (exact dates TBD). You can expect a variety of vegetables, herbs, and greens each week. For details, click here.
