Coffy Town Radio Theater
From Writer Jessica Holter, creator of The Punany Poets, comes an urban who‑done‑it scored in pimp‑noir — infused with funk, rhythm & blues, Gospel House, and trap‑cabaret.
Coffy Town Radio Theater is your doorway into a living sonic mystery — a city where every voice carries a secret and every beat moves the story forward.
Each week, you’ll slip into Storytime with Lady, following Lady, the city’s sharp‑eyed seamstress and quiet force, as she navigates a world stitched together with music, memory, and dangerous charm.
Newcomers can begin with Season 1: Players & Pearls at Club Surrender — where Ruby’s disappearance, Lady’s buried past, and the rise of Coffy House Records set the foundation for the city’s unfolding mythology.
Season 2: Jackie’s Back begins dropping episodes this Summer, picking up the moment Season 1 ends and plunging Coffy Town into a storm of revelation, return, and reckoning.
Season by season, the story unfolds like a serialized novel for the ear — cabaret confessionals, Gospel House benedictions, horrorcore revelations, and whispered clues that keep the whole town on edge.
Between episodes, The Water with Emcee Skawla keeps you hydrated with Coffy Box Music, community dispatches, and the latest Coffy Talk about what’s really happening beneath the surface of the city.
All of it springs from the imagination of Jessica Holter, weaving a world where narrative, music, and community collide — and where every clue pulls you deeper into the mystery.

Emcee Skawla returns to The Water with that cool, clear broadcast Coffy Town depends on when the streets start whispering. This week, she calls out the human auditions opening across the city, the closed‑club rehearsals happening behind the velvet curtains of Club Surrender, and the rising tension around who gets to shape the story next. Skawla speaks directly to The Writer, reminding her — and us — that narrative power is a dangerous thing to hold and an even harder thing to share.
While holding down the lingering mystery of Players & Pearls, Skawla introduces two Voices of Foster Care favorites: • “Boxes” by Brown Viking — a percussive confession about what we carry and what carries us • “Secondhand Wings” by Foster Child Unknown — a soaring anthem for anyone learning to fly without a map
Coffy Town is shifting. The Rebels are restless. The Citizens’ Circuit is growing. And Skawla stays ready, weaving music, memory, and meaning into a broadcast that feels more like a warning than a report.
If you’re new to the city, now is the time to catch up on Season 1: Players & Pearls at Club Surrender before the Sneak Peek for Season 2 drops. The clues are already moving.

COFFY TOWN
Episode 1 – The Water with Emcee Skawla
Emcee Skawla opens the very first episode of The Water with a pulse straight from the heart of Coffy Town: Coffy House Gospel Music rising through the speakers like a warning and a blessing. The city is humming, the clubs are shifting, and Skawla is right where she belongs — on the mic, reading the room before the room even knows what it feels.
Tonight, she breaks the news that Sarah Sarah has ended her tour abruptly and is already back home in Coffy Town. No press release, no spectacle — just a quiet return that has the whole city leaning in. Fans are whispering. Promoters are guessing. And Skawla is connecting the dots in real time, sensing the early tremors of the story that’s about to unfold.
As she spins Gospel House classics and deep cuts from the Coffy House vault, Skawla frames Sarah Sarah’s homecoming as more than a headline — it’s a shift in the city’s spiritual weather. Club Surrender is warming up. The Players are circling. The Pearls are polishing. And the narrative currents are already moving beneath the surface.
This is the broadcast that sets the stage for everything to come — the energy, the mystery, the music, and the tension that will eventually ignite Season 1: Players & Pearls at Club Surrender.
If you’re stepping into Coffy Town for the first time, this is where the story starts. Catch up now before the Sneak Peek for Season 2 drops — the clues are already in motion.
