About Us

Northbay Uprising Radio provides a counter-culture entertainment and information service for the liberated people of the San Pablo bay area (and beyond), featuring...
* a Showcase of North Bay talent, musicians, and poets, transmitting to an audience numbering thousands across the north-east San Pablo Bay. We are driven to promote the Northbay as an epicenter of culture and music, and to put the scene on the map. We are YOUR fans, and we have our own media outlet!
* a journalistic enterprise with volunteer journalists, experimenting with the boundaries for an unrestricted and independent press as recognized by the California Republic Constitution.

The Showcase is composed of three segments:
* MisDemeanor's Hitlist, featuring all the best hip-hop music in the Northbay and nearby liberated zones. See the MisDemeanor Rapsheet! [link]
* Gathering of the Tribes, for alternative culture, with a psychedelic twist. [link]
* Northbay Uprising radio news, hardwired to reveal the hard truth about what's going on in the San Pablo Bay region and beyond.
Hosted by Dr.G. [link] & MisDemeanor [link]!
