BECU, the country's largest community credit union, and KEXP, a public broadcaster and a nonprofit arts organization serving music lovers, today announced the digital album compilation "Live at KEXP Volume 10," a 19-track album featuring decades of live studio performances from prominent musical artists like Angel Olsen, Black Pumas, Brittany Howard, Neko Case, Modest Mouse and Run the Jewels.

"Live At KEXP Volume 10" is available now for pre-order at kexp.bandcamp.com. The official release date of the album is on Bandcamp Friday, Sept. 2. The album will be available for $10 and all digital purchase proceeds go directly to the artists. A limited-edition double vinyl LP, featuring a full two-sleeve artwork package is being pressed to commemorate KEXP's 50th anniversary estimated to be available in time for the holidays with proceeds going to support independent record stores.

​"Performances at KEXP's Live Room are seen, heard and beloved around the world," said Cheryl Waters, KEXP's Midday Show DJ. "These live performances are one of the passion points that connect our community. 'Live at KEXP Volume 10' and the support it will bring to featured artists and to local record stores is one way that KEXP is celebrating folks making live music and local businesses that are selling the music."

BECU and KEXP have been partners for nearly 20 years. This collaboration on the album release is a new approach to their partnership​. By collecting tracks recorded at the Live Room as well as other live performances and then releasing them digitally and on vinyl, the performing artists and independent record stores will both share in the proceeds of the project.

"We recognize the essential power of public radio to transform lives and connect people through music," said Tom Berquist, BECU's chief marketing officer. "Over the last 50 years, KEXP has grown into a cultural force for listeners worldwide bringing communities together. We are proud to partner in celebrating local artists and providing necessary support to keep music alive in our communities, all in line with the credit union philosophy of 'people helping people.'"
