What’s New with Gini Mascorro
Host and all-around music wrangler Gini Mascorro has long been introducing North Texans to their next favorite artist, be they from across the globe, nation or right here in our own backyard. Now, tune in Mondays from 7-8pm for a full hour of new tracks, including the New Music Monday picks featured earlier in the day.
The Local Show with Amy Miller
Call us biased, but we think North Texas has some of the best musicians around. Thursdays from 7-8pm, host Amy Miller will be introducing you to those local artists through interviews, in-studio performances and by playing tracks that span genres like rock, blues, Latin, hip-hop, jazz, folk and more.
World Cafe with Talia Schlanger
Each week, WXPN’s Talia Schlanger presents interviews and performances with today’s essential and emerging artists. Launched in 1991, World Cafe is known by artists, appreciative audiences and the radio and music industries as an influential source for music discovery. This two-hour program will continue to air on KXT every Monday-Friday at 11pm.
KXT strives to serve North Texans with quality music and programs that aren’t available anywhere else. The recent additions to our on-air schedule offer more content that’s created and curated specifically for North Texans, during hours when more North Texans are able to listen.
