Marcie Pink — Sun, 04 Dec 2011 18:03:38 +0000

Rich O'Toole is one of my favorite Texas artists -- always look forward to seeing his new work. His latest video release "Kiss of a Liar" is being released to the public tomorrow, but he gave us a sneak peak and we love it. Last week we were wondering if we should drop his song "Marijuana and Jalapenos' -- but you all quickly gave us the "thumbs up" for the song. Should we start spinning "Kiss of a Liar?" more -- Tell us what you think after the jump.

Texas Radio Says 'No' to 'Marijuana and Jalapenos' [AUDIO]

Buddy Logan — Mon, 28 Nov 2011 22:15:41 +0000

Not too long ago a friend of mine (who is also a respected man in the East Texas business community) told me the story about the first time he saw Rich O'Toole. His story took place roughly 4 years ago while Rich was opening for Randy Rogers. He was there to see Randy and had absolutely no idea who Rich was, so while Rich was on stage my friend just kinda tuned him out like many folks will do to an opening act they're unfamiliar with -- that is until Rich started singing a song that caught his ear.

Our buddy Rich O'Toole stopped in to perform on The KNUE Front Porch for some great listeners this afternoon and kept everyone entertained with some great stories and music!

Known more for pleasing fans than pleasing management and record labels, Rich decided to release the fan favorite Marijuana And Jalapenos as his new single, a move that could see the end to his run of 9 straight Top 10 songs in Texas, but it's no big secret that is not what's important to Rich.
