Buy Great Music and Help Support The Deep Roots Music Project for Youth Now!!!

Exhibiting top local talent such as Dirty Martini, The Bella Fayes, UHF, Dr. Theopolis, Rubberneck, Geoff Byrd, Kerosene Dream, Rye Hollow, Kris Kirkman, and Nicole Campbell; this Portland collaboration combines everything we love about independent music and local artists who care about their community.

Each year, musicians in Portland, Oregon hit the classroom to teach students at Reynolds High School the craft of lyric writing. The musicians help the students hone their writing strategies and skills, and encourage honest self-expression through the written word.

This inspiration is not lost on the young writers. They write lyrics and pass them back to the musicians, watching and listening as their thoughts are crafted into powerful songs. All 18 of these songs were created in that way, and when you buy a Deep Roots CD, you not only help ensure the future of the project, you add a CD to your collection that deserves to find a place in your regular rotation.
