Join me at 9 tonight for the L.A. Buzz Bands Show on KCSN (88.5 FM, streaming at KCSN.org), as well as a little bit of what listener-supported radio stations do — ask for listener support. KCSN’s quick-hitting Spring Pledge Drive is in high gear, and in addition to the regular incentives for becoming a contributing member, there are scads of concert tickets to be scored. (I note Elvis Costello, Conor Oberst, Feist, Fleet Foxes, Nick Cave, Phoenix, PJ Harvey and Pixies on the list, among many others. Plus, you can be entered to win passes to the Classic West concerts at Dodger Stadium featuring the Eagles and Fleetwood Mac.)

As for the show, tonight’s hour of local is packed new goodies — songs from Miranda Lee Richards, Korey Dane, Gothic Tropic, Freedom Fry, Cuesta Loeb, KOLARS and GospelbeacH. And plenty more. Remember, we keep the talk to a minimum and the music to a maximum during pledge drives, so help us keep the lights on by calling 1-800-795-KCSN to donate, or doing so online.

Tonight’s playlist, subject to last-minute tweaks:

Korey Dane, “Half Asleep”
KOLARS, “One More Thrill”
Blond Amibition, “Stupid Boy/Girl”
Cuesta Loeb, “Grass It Grows”
Gothic Tropic, “Your Soul”
Bolinas, “Vacation”
Miranda Lee Richards, “Ludic I Would Dream”
GospelbeacH, “Hangin’ On”
Jake Bellows, “Little Bird”
Yume, “Hideaway”
Pom Poms, “Gimme You”
Freedom Fry, “Wild Child”
SWIMM, “First Time”
Tashaki Miyaki, “Cool Running”
