No Cover Local Sessions is an ongoing broadcast collaboration between KCSU and CTV, designed to feature the diverse musical talent across Northern Colorado. Recorded live inside the KCSU studio with production from CTV, each session provides emerging bands and artists with a platform to showcase their original sound through full audio sets and filmed video performances. Released across CTV’s YouTube channel and KCSU’s podcast platforms, the show gives local musicians promotional media while connecting listener communities directly to the region’s music scene.

Beyond the music, No Cover explores the creative journeys and community roots behind each artist. Hosted by KCSU Local Director, every episode pairs a live recorded set with an in-depth conversation on songwriting, performance, and what it takes to foster a supportive local scene. Whether you are an established group promoting a new release or an up-and-coming act ready for your first recorded studio session, performing on No Cover is an opportunity to expand your reach and share your sound.
