In this episode listen for Café Jacques an obscure band from the late 70s. If you look you can find them listed on All Music.com … by that I mean that you can find a listening of their name … but you won’t find any information… strange because they had a great sound. Also listen for a remix of the classic Rare Earth tune … I Just Want to Celebrate… Plus music from the Blues Brothers, Tonic, Todd Rundgren and more. Also listen as Jack Nicholson attempts to place an order here at the Sonic Café …. And I do emphasize attempts.

The Sonic Cafe features an intelligent, eclectic mix of music, comedy and pop culture showcasing 30 to 60 years of content within each episode.

The show is set in an imaginary caf overlooking the Pacific Ocean on the Central Oregon Coast. The cafe serves music, comedy and pop culture rather than breakfast, lunch and dinner. All announcer voiceovers are presented over the background noise of a busy caf with references made to the caf environment to create a theatre of the mind experience for listeners.

The program actually does originate from KYAQ radio located on the Oregon coast in the Pacific Northwest, so the imagery is not a huge stretch.

Though show lengths display as 58:13 in Audioport each show is actually 58:00 minutes in length leaving room for station ID, promos and PSAs. Each episode is .mp3 encoded at a constant rate of 256kbps and ready for broadcast.

All episodes are evergreen; never focusing on time of year, weather, month, holidays, events etc. so each show is timeless. All music is presented in a no repeat format. Once a song airs in an episode it never airs again. Episodes may be downloaded and grouped together to quickly create program blocks of two, three, four or more hours in length.

Original syndication date was 7/22/2016. At that time 31 shows had already been produced (over six months of content) with new episodes produced weekly. A new episode is released each Friday. You can confidently add The Sonic Caf to your schedule knowing that a backlog of shows is already produced awaiting weekly release.

The Sonic Cafe has a Facebook page (facebook.com/SonicCafeRadio) where complete show notes and playlists are presented for each episode. Listeners can also reach the show producers via email (SonicCafeRadio@gmail.com)

Pre-recorded Sonic Cafe promos are available to promote the show on your station. Each is roughly :24 seconds in length with time left to tag local broadcast day and time. Send us a request via email to request promo files. Also please let us know if you pick-up the program on your station so we can announce it on our Facebook page.
