Doors open at 6:30 PM J. Robert Spencer takes you on a musical journey across genres and decades with his show “7,000 Miles to Broadway”. You'll be transported back in time on a road trip in the family wood-paneled yellow station wagon where J. Robert grew up singing classic country, rock, and Broadway hits along to the car radio and 8-tracks. This is the music that helped pave his way to starring in “Jersey Boys,” and “Next to Normal.” From Willie Nelson’s country twang to the smooth crooning sounds of Frank Sinatra and the pop favorites of Frankie Valli, “7,000 Miles to Broadway” is chock full of radio and Broadway hits!

KAFM Presents Jeff PLankenhorn in The Radio Room
Jeff Plankenhorn plays a soulful, distinctly Austin brand of roots rock that, over the past

several years, has gained him a devoted national following and a seat among the very best contemporary Americana songwriters. His confident, catchy-as-hell fourth studio album, "Sleeping Dogs" was released to rave reviews (Rolling Stone Country, the Boot, Twangville, among others) and spent a good chunk of 2018 on the Roots Rock and Americana radio charts (#5 and #44). The four-piece band that bears his name has become a favorite on the festival circuit, scoring spots at Old Settlers Music Festival, Kerrville Folk Festival, Telluride Americana Music Festival, and Austin’s annual New Year's Eve blowout at Auditorium Shores.
