The winds of change are here again at OurStage! A team of fresh faces is here to say “hello” while some familiar faces must say “farewell”  so read on to get to know some new bloggers  and remember those who you may have seen just a few times.

KB ~ Director of Community
KB has been working at OurStage the longest out of the current editorial staff. She handles all the major responsibilities in Community and keeps the rest of us in line. It’s KB’s job to answer all the hard questions and make sure all the gears are turning in the right direction!
~KB has managed bands, produced records and programmed music festivals all in the hopes of illuminating and supporting emerging artists. This girl is dedicated to what she does.
~She is a member of NARAS (perhaps you have heard of “The Grammys?”) and is on the Boston Committee of the New York Chapter of the Recording Academy.
~In high school, she had a radio show called Hank’s Laundromat which played “everything from Pixies to Kraftwerk, Bauhuas to Ministry.”
~Her first concert was Michael Jackson’s Victory Tour; the most recent was Kings of Leon.
Favorite OurStage Channels: Indie Rock and Indie Pop

Rainy S. ~ Community Manager
That’s me! I’ve worked at OurStage in many different capacities, including as a field rep for the site. I’ve always been on the other end of the musical world: making noise on stage and in the studio with different bands. When I’m not making music, I’m usually crocheting something or crafting with hot glue, buttons, pipe cleaners, you name it.
~Right now I make up one half of Eye Witness, half of Olox the Terrible and am the founding—and sometimes only—member of Hang Lorraine.
~Among these various projects, I find myself responsible for drums and percussion, bass, flute, clarinet, accordion, xylophone and vocals but this doesn’t mean I’m good at all of them.
~Last weekend my friend and I drove an hour, then took a four hour bus ride to stay overnight in a youth hostel (on a Sunday)  in order to see my favorite band, Café Tacuba, in New York City.
Favorite OurStage Channels: Electronic/Electro-Pop and Latin
