Upcoming Living Room Concert Friday, November 13th, at 6:30 PM Join HPPR for the second Texas Christmas Jam this Friday! Our area's favorite artists, musicians, singers, songwriters will be performing live holiday carols and songs. So far, the roster includes Yvonne Perea; Tennessee Tuckness w/ Matt Martindale (performing a very special duet for the concert); Moses Morin; Mike Fuller; Soprano Soloist Alley DiTomasso of St. Andrew’s Church; The Woodland Elementary 4th Grade Honor Choir; Andy Chase Cundiff – with poetry & holiday readings by Carli Herbert & Mark Haslett. There will be cookies from Belmar Bakery, Coffee from The Ground Café, a festive atmosphere with decorations provided by HPPR staff, as well as poetry readings, solo vocal performances, and more! As always, there’s no charge to attend this show, however we DO hope folks will drop a $10 donation in the bucket in order to compensate the generosity of our artists.  Many performers will be selling their CDs at the show as well.  We even plan to hand out holiday gifts to good boys & girls! This event is co-sponsored by West Texas A & M University. For more information on becoming a part of our Living Room Concert series, Click Here to view our artist submission information.

Upcoming Living Room Concert Friday, December 18th, at 7:30 PM Our next Living Room Concert in Garden City is gonna be something extra special! Lisa Markley’s music is an exuberant blend of Jazz, Folk and Blues--her diverse style defies categorization. A multi-instrumentalist, Lisa graduated from the University of North Texas with a degree in Music Composition.  Her live shows find Lisa pulling no punches:  she sings, plays guitar and piano, and engages the audience in her unique style of storytelling and wit. Lisa shifts easily from Joni Mitchell-style folk to Billie Holliday-esque jazz torch singing which brings to mind Patsy Cline and Ella Fitzgerald.  She brings her effortless, awesome talents to High Plains Public Radio’s Garden City, KS studios (210 N. 7th) on December 18th.  Doors open at 7:00pm with music beginning at 7:30. As always, there is no charge to attend the Living Room Concert, but we do suggest a minimum $10 artist donation.
