Why Suzanna Choffel Says Austin’s Music Community Is Magical

View all City Cast Austin episodes

For decades, Suzanna Choffel has called Austin home, and found a magical music community among others who play at our local bars and venues. David Garza, who produced her fourth and latest album, called her “the voice of Austin,” and it’s not hyperbole, as her diverse influences reflect the richness of Austin’s local music scene. She joins host Nikki DaVaughn to share what makes Austin’s music scene so special, and why she still loves it even as the city changes. And stay tuned for our special weekly segment, A Mile in Their Boots, featuring a bonus interview with Marc Nathan, a “superconnecter” who helps investors connect with local entrepreneurs. 


This is the fourth of five episodes we’re doing about the music community in Austin, brought to you by our exclusive launch sponsor, Tecovas. Tecovas knows more than handmade boots and fine Western wear — they’ve got an ear for great music, too. From legends of the past to rising stars on the scene, they love supporting musicians and music fans right here in Austin. So if you’re headed for a good time on the stage or in the crowd, go in good boots from Tecovas. You can hear Suzanna Choffel, along with Alex Marrero and Julie Bouchard, play live at our Austin in Stereo showcase, from 5 to 8 p.m. on Thursday, Sept. 12, at the Tecovas store on South Congress.
