KC Cafe Radio to end broadcast on May 31, 2023

New podcast series begins June 2

To our loyal KC Cafe Radio listeners,

After 15 years of Bring You the World’s Finest Original Music, KC Cafe Radio will cease broadcasting on May 31, 2023. In it’s place we will offer a new podcast series, called The KC Cafe Podcast with Kathy and Kathy: Your Backstage Pass to the Power of Music. Our plan is to feature topics on music that we love and share those topics with you. This will be music from well-known artists and some lesser-known artists, as well as artists we have had on KC Café Radio over the years. Our plan is to launch the new podcast on Friday, June 2, 2023.

So, you may ask, why are we ending KC Café Radio now? We took a long look at the station and decided that a new direction was needed. Over the last couple of years, we have noticed that increasingly our visits to the website well outnumbered the time spent listening to the station. This has made our original purpose of the station frivolous. We started the station 15 years ago as a conduit for people to be introduced to, and enjoy original unsigned artists they may never have heard before. Over the years however, the way people are introduced to, and listen to music has changed dramatically. The broad genre music format has given way to niche programming, and most people now listen to (or watch) with a specific purpose in mind. So, with that said we think we need to find a way to serve the artist more directly.

Our website will remain active and still house the many interviews, blog posts, and content. Moving forward we will continue to post blogs, artist content and information, and links to our new KC Café Podcast on our YouTube Channel @kccafepodcastofficial6468.

Going forward John is continuing his wildly popular internet radio station Peaceful Currents Radio (https://peacefulcurrentsradio.com), while Kathy and Kathleen (“Kathy”) are excited to step into this new format and hope that you will join us in engaging conversation as we express and share our love of music.

So, pull up a chair and grab your favorite brew and we look forward to seeing you soon on the podcast!
