KDNK Birthday Bash

Join us as we celebrate the 35th anniversary of our very first FM broadcast with a Birthday Bash at Third Street Center in Carbondale from 4 to 9pm on Sunday April 15th. Well hear from station founders, former staff and volunteers. You can pose in the photo booth by Aw Snap, sip drinks from Ska Brewing, Marble Distilling, and Black Bridge Winery, and chow down on grub from Kalebs Katch and Tiny Chef Catering. Steve Cole and Roberta Lewis kick off the live music ahead of our headliner Blue Kings, a ska band from Denver who just released a new album last week! The first 200 KDNK members to buy tickets to the 35th Birthday Bash get in for just $3.50. KDNK has been cultivating community since 1983.

Vocalist Roberta Lewis has entertained in the Aspen area for nearly 20 years with The Sirens and has performed with John Denver, Tuck & Patti, and Dr. John. Her mastery of styles and broad vocal range make her voice at once indescribable and unforgettable as she switches from elegant jazz to soulful R&B in a heartbeat. Long time radio personality and featured soloist Steve Cole is a veritable fountain of ideas on the sax, clarinet and keys. His remarkably rich voice allows him to emulate such greats as Louis Armstrong and Tom Waits. Plus, he excels as a witty and charming Master of Ceremonies.

Please note, due to an emergency, The Dendrites had to cancel their trip to the mountains.
