RADIO ROOM

Live in The Radio Room

7:00pm-9:00pm, The Radio Room 1310 Ute Avenue

Join KAFM Saturday, February 10th for a live performance from Goldpine in our intimate Radio Room. From the main stage at Kerrville Folk Festival more...0 and Americanafest Nashville to listening rooms throughout the United States, Goldpine has been offering their own brand of raw Americana to audiences large and small. WINNER of the 2022 Rocky Mountain Songwriter Contest, the duo’s bold harmonies are clearly a channel for their highly charged songwriting. Exposing the pains of severed relationships and unearthing the pursuits of love and purpose, Goldpine is cathartic, moody and relevant. “Goldpine is folksy and falls within the Americana genre but their musical arrangements are very innovative and eclectic.”– Melissa Clarke (Americana Highways, July 7, 2022)
