It seems most weeks there is a different No. 1 in Texas -- but this week “Troubadour, TX” star Josh Grider looks to keep his very first No. 1 “Lone Star Highway” there for a third straight week. To do it he’ll have to hold off Aaron Watson and Turnpike Troubadours. Can Grider stay on top? Let’s find out.
Texas Ranger fans have plenty of reasons to root against their former outfielder/All-Star/MVP Josh Hamilton. Soon after the troubled outfielder signed a multi-year, multi-million dollar contract with division rival Angels, Hamilton put all of DFW on blast claiming they're "not true baseball town." But rest easy Texas Music lovers, we now have one big reason to root for potential Rangers' pitcher Randy Wells.
One of the best bands to emerge from south of the Mason Dixon Line and west of the Great Mississippi is making its way back to the Rose City this week, and you're gonna regret it if you're not there with me.
Uncle Lucius is one of those bands that you get excited to be the first of your friends to discover. Cause then you get to make 'em feel like losers for not already listening to them. Their music has been featured on television shows like "Castle" and "Friday Night Lights." Recently the guys stopped by Radio Texas, LIVE! to hang, and debut "Keep the Wolves Away." If you missed it, here’s the recap.
Charlie Robison is Texas Music. He's one of the four of five guys that are responsible for it's overwhelming popularity today. Today for The RTX Sunday Video, off Charlie Robison’s “Good Times” album it’s “El Cerrito Place.”
This week "Troubadour, TX" star Josh Grider looks to keep his very first No. 1 "Lone Star Highway" there for a second week. But to get there he’ll have to hold off Randy Rogers Band and Turnpike Troubadours. Can Grider stay on top? Let’s find out.
Eight. If you asked me how many No. 1 singles Josh Abbott has had in row, that's the number I'd put my money on. And while as far as I know there's no reliable place online to check this (if you know of a place let me know, please), topping the Texas charts and selling out venues has become almost expected for the popular Idalou native. Last week, before heading to yet another sold out show at Coaches and Cowboys in Tyler, Josh Abbott Band stopped by our studio to perform for some lucky listeners. If you didn't make it, here's what you missed.
The 5th Annual Lone Star Music Awards will be held on Sunday, April 28th 2013, at the Texas Music Theater in San Marcos. Voting begins on Friday (March 1st). Ticket information and line up will be coming soon. Here's your nominees.
I'm up at the station tonight, and I need to be working on my show. But I can't stop watching "Goat Edition" YouTube videos. I'm laughing my butt off watching these things. You've probably seen Taylor Swift's "Trouble" (Goat Edition), or perhaps you've seen the Usher "Scream" (Goat Edition).
Who’s the next breakout star in the Texas, Red Dirt scene? Well, if you trust Texas stalwarts like Aaron Watson and Kevin Fowler, they've both told me -- on separate occasions mind you -- that title goes to Cody Johnson. Not a bad endorsement. And this Wednesday (Feb. 27) you can catch Texas' next breakout star at Tyler's all new Coaches and Cowboys.
Troubadour, TX is a nationally syndicated television show that "follows the lives of various singers and songwriters as they chase their dreams across the Lone Star State." The show features established artists like Ray Wylie Hubbard, Wade Bowen and Jack Ingram. But it also shares the stories of musicians working to achieve their dream, guys like Josh Grider, Matt Caldwell and Zane Williams. Last week those three gentlemen stopped by Radio Texas, LIVE!
Casey Donahew Band is one of the hottest acts in Texas. It seems they can’t release a single without it going No. 1, nor put on a show without selling it out. But it’s been a long road, in fact last October the band celebrated their ten year anniversary. Pretty impressive for the Burleson based band. This week CDB has got the RTX Sunday Video.
