CYY 25. 25 of the most important CYY bands to celebrate our 25 years on the air. And amongst the Green Days, Peal Jams, and Foo Fighters of the world, we could not have a proper celebration without including Maine's own Rustic Overtones as one of CYY's most essential bands. Rustic and CYY came up together. We've been with them, and them with us, from the very start. The Rustic shows on the CYY patio are some of Portland's most iconic musical moments. We're proud to have played more local rock music than any other commercial radio station in Maine history. It was part of our mission when we started 25 years ago and still is today. Check out the local and indie every Sunday night with our man Mark Curdo!
