The ulterior motive may be material for their annual Broadcasts release, 10 volumes of mostly acoustic b-sides from heaven - an enormous fundraiser for Austin's nonprofit musician's health service SIMS -- but KGSR's track record of in-studio live performances from singer-songwriters of legend large and small, Austin-bound and international, is music to our ears. Program Director Jody Denberg deserves no small amount of applause for his ability to sweet talk even the most shrinking violet musicians into KGSR's studio for off-the-cuff performances that'll make you pull the car over and bask in the moment.
