Umpqua Bank
continues the trend popularized by Starbucks Coffee of adding
novelties to boost in-store experience. Music listeners can
compile a CD of up to 10 songs from over 48 West Coast
independent music artists through the Discover Local Music
project, an online music store the bank created with
Portland-based Rumblefish. The music service,
available at bank branches and through www.umpquamusic.com,
will offer more than 1,500 songs by the end of this year.
