Hello! KXT has a challenge in place from dedicated listeners of KXT in Dallas who have been supporting KXT since the beginning.  Here’s the scoop – KXT must raise $15,000 by 6pm today and if successful, KXT will receive an additional $3,000 from these generous, dedicated listeners committed to the station’s success.

That said, we’re offering  Mystery Posters from the KXT archives!

1. Choose Brent Ozaeta combo as a thank you gift for $210 – it has the custom designed T-shirt, the matching mug and poster.  You can even choose to set it up on a sustaining membership plan with easy, automatic monthly installements.

2. We’ll send you a mystery poster from the KXT archives as a bonus!  You won’t know which poster it is until you get it in the mail. Long time listeners know we have had some amazing signed and numbered art pieces during these fundraising campaigns.

3.  This offer is eligible by phone 877-469-3135 or web.

Listeners of KXT know that on Mondays we play a ton of new music for New Music Monday. During fundraising campaigns, we like to take a moment and reach out to folks who have never given to the station before and give you a little incentive to take the first step to becoming a supporter of KXT.

Make a first-time contribution of $60 or more by phone (877-469-3135) or web and we’ll throw in a bonus music selection from our New Music Grab Bag. Some of the titles include: Cas Haley – La Si Dah; Patty Griffin – American Kid; Willie Nelson & Family – Let’s Face The Music; Little Green Cars – Absolute Zero; Ben Folds Five – Ben Folds Five Live; Eric Clapton – Old Sock; Iron & Wine – Ghost on Ghost; Family of the Year – Loma Vista among many others.  

So take that first step and become a member of KXT.  It’s quick and easy and will keep KXT on-air, commercial free and playing music you won’t hear anywhere else in North Texas.
