WYEP
Club Cafe has closed its doors after 25 years, but WYEP and the South Side venue had a long history of partnering with live concert broadcasts. On Jan. 22 at 7 p.m., listen to WYEP to hear clips from past Club Cafe simulcasts and hear music and conversation from Michael Franti, Tori Amos, Frank Black of the Pixies and more. We also asked WYEP listeners to send in their memories of Club Cafe!
