Album Notes

Oldschool Houserock (OSHR) is a web site and news letter which acts as a banner for a group of Portland artists. Selection is done by peer process. These bands don't pay to be on the roster. Nor does OSHR make money off the bands. It is strictly a brand whose primary mission is to see its members successful in making their art.

OSHR Compilations are promotional CDs that showcase the best material from NW bands and artists. The CDs are sent to: local media, online zines, radio stations, colleges, and clubs; heavily distributed in the NW and through other parts of the United States.
