From the bottom of my heart—thank you. Because of your incredible support during KKFI’s 2025 Summer Fund Drive, The Midtown Lounge reached its fundraising goal!

Your generosity keeps the music alive—those deep blues, gritty rock, and soul-stirring grooves that define our time together each week. You’re not just listeners; you’re the heartbeat of this show and the reason we keep pushing play.

Here’s to more days in The Midtown Lounge—where the amps hum, the rhythm rolls, and the soul runs deep. Much love!
