The KXT 91.7 Presents concert series is still keeping the music alive, albeit from the comfort of home. The station has been sharing performances from musicians recorded exclusively for KXT listeners.
“Musicians are being more creative than ever right now and we wanted to give them an opportunity to showcase their music in a live setting,” says KXT’s Amy Miller. “Through this series, we hope to provide our listeners with a live music experience from some of their favorite KXT artists. Our listeners aren’t able to go see shows right now, so we’re doing our best to bring the music to them.”

Michigander
The solo project of Jason Singer, a songwriter from Kalamazoo, MI. He was one of KXT’s favorite discoveries of 2019. His lyricism and affinity for a good hook is apparent whether he’s backed by electric guitars and synths, or by an acoustic guitar.
