45: Abbie Gobeli

Published: March 10, 2020, 1 p.m.

Welcome to Made for Music! Today’s friend of the podcast hails from Mason City, Iowa. From a young age she was an “Archaeological music digger,” spending many late nights watching MTV sessions. She escaped the cornfields for college in Minneapolis where she got involved with the college radio station, and went on to book shows and write for various music publications. 

After a detour to Glasgow, Scotland, she became a true marketing/PR hustler at Saddle Creek Records. During her time overseas she was interviewing new Scottish bands for Radio K, writing for The Pop Cop, and that, ladies and gentleman, is just the prelude. 

She landed in Seattle just over four years ago, working at Sonic Boom Records, and immediately began volunteering at KEXP on the Morning on Mondays, while also interning with the Business Support and Underwriting Department. This led to her OWN SHOW every Wednesday. So, please welcome – the host of Variety Mix on KEXP – the manager of Actors and Tiny Deaths, Abbie Gobeli.
