RAWTV Season 3-web

The locally produced music and art show RAWTV (short for Regional Artist Web TV) is returning for their third season of on-air shenanigans starting on Saturday, Feb. 7, 2016. The 30-minute show airs at 1 a.m. on KCRA right after Saturday Night Live and features a random mix of creative art and music videos from all over the world, with a whole lot of Sacramento love to boot. When tuning into RAWTV, expect weird and funny sketches, features on local bands and businesses, interviews, random videos from the internet, and so much more. Think Adult Swim meets MTV back when they actually played videos. “It’s music to our ears when industry reviewers have a hard time describing our show, and that’s because it’s different,” says RAWTV’s showrunner John Christensen. “But at the same time we see our show as a modern-day Ed Sullivan Show.” Submerge first caught episodes of RAWTV during their second season in 2015 (their first season was technically all the way back in 1997) and we were immediately drawn to its quirky charm. We love how they don’t take themselves too seriously, and that they’re giving so much great local music well-deserved airtime. For their latest season, RAWTV welcomes a new host, Jessica Will, a Sacramento-based professional snake charming contortionist and seasoned dancer. Be sure to tune in every Saturday at 1 a.m. to see what sort of cool stuff the RAWTV folks are up to. Check out full episodes from season 2 online at Rawtv.com.
