Raina Douris visits Green Line Records

Boston is a college town and wherever you find a lot of students, you can usually find lots of fledgling bands. At Northeastern University, a group of undergrads are working to take those artists to the next level, signing them to the student-run Green Line Records. On this edition of World Cafe’s Sense of Place Boston series, hear from Green Line Records president and the head of A&R about how they are helping break new artists and listen to some of the new music the label just finished recording this Fall.

Listen to the session here.
