About the station
KBOO broadcasts from Portland in the US state of Oregon on 90.7 FM. The station operates as a non-commercial community radio station, and a large part of the program is created by volunteer hosts. The offering is intentionally diverse: in addition to music programs, there are spoken-word segments on politics, the environment, and urban history.
Musically, KBOO focuses on folk, Americana, and roots music. Programs such as Cascadia Coffeehouse or Folk Espresso introduce new and classic singer-songwriters, while Swing ‘n’ Country mixes tracks from various traditions. Alongside these are rock and blues formats, as well as shows that examine individual artists or film scores in greater detail, such as the series Film at 11, which focuses on composers like Bernard Herrmann.
Social issues also have a place in the program. The program Old Mole Variety Hour covers questions regarding the police, the penal system, and social justice in the region, and Locus Focus reports on local environmental topics such as the Willamette River, which flows through Portland.
