CASH Music and 50FOOTWAVE Release Power+Light, 1.5GB of CC-Licensed Music
Cameron Parkins, March 6th, 2009
CASH Music, the CC-friendly non-profit we can’t seem to stop talking about, has teamed up with 50FOOTWAVE to release the band’s entire back-catalog – including a brand new EP Power+Light, prior releases, and various rarities – under a CC BY-NC-SA license.
Fronted by songwriter Kristin Hersh, 50FOOTWAVE’s back-catalog is a massive amount of material, now available for free in both FLAC and MP3 formats making it one of CASH’s most impressive releases to date. The focus of the release is clearly on Power+Light, which can be purchased as a vinyl pressing in addition to free download.

Kristin’s pretty awesome for doing this. The idea behind CASH Music is great, and releasing stuff like live tracks and instrumentals, along with all the previous albums and EPs? Grand.
Oh, yeah. The music’s good too!
