Seven years ago Creative Fresno, a Fresno based non-profit, created a festival called Fresno Urban Sound Experience or F.U.S.E. Fest.

One of the 30 bands who played the F.U.S.E. Fest circuit in 2013.

The festival was created with one goal: to capture what the Fresno underground music scene sounds like. And the festival only has a few rules: each band gets 30 minutes to perform, every band has to be local and can only play original music.

It's sort of a for Fresno by Fresno festival. Josh Tehee, one of the co-founders and a music and entertainment reporter for the Fresno Bee, sat down with KVPR's Ezra David Romero to talk about this year's festival and what shows you should go to at this years two day event held at four different venues Friday Sept. 26 and Saturday Sept. 27, 2014. 

Listen to the segment above for the interview and a clip of one of the bands that will play at F.U.S.E. Fest this  year. 

Ezra David Romero is an award-winning radio reporter and producer. His stories have run on Morning Edition, Morning Edition Saturday, Morning Edition Sunday, All Things Considered, Here & Now, The Salt, Latino USA, KQED, KALW, Harvest Public Radio, etc.
