Howdy Texas Music Fans! It’s great to be back at the ranch for a little R & R. We have just wrapped up an incredible March with the highlight being the Texas Birthday Bash in Navasota, where I was once again honored to share the stage with the elite of Texas Music.

Asleep at the Wheel, Kevin Fowler, Neal McCoy and Bri Bagwell were there, just to name a few.

Now we are headed into the main stretch for great upcoming Texas Country events.

The BIG Daddy of them all is right here in North Texas. That’s right. This year the Legends of Western Swing Music Festival in Wichita Falls will turn 30 years old. I’m happy to say that the finest event in Texas music is celebrating 30 years with a big party.

It’s an incredible lineup, many of whom I know you are well aware of, but just in case, here’s the scoop. Thursday, June 15, Jake Hooker, Jody Nix and John England. Friday, June 16, Jason Roberts, Billy Mata and Ted Scanlon.

Saturday, June 17, Asleep at the Wheel and yours truly, Dave Alexander and my Big Texas Swing Band and Bobby Flores.

Seems lately these days Texas is becoming the envy of musicians from around the world.
With the overwhelming response to “Yellowstone,” the television series, Texas once again finds itself under the microscope of the world, much like the late 1980’s TV series know to all around the globe as “Dallas.”

With that said, the musician population in Texas is beginning to grow as many aspiring performers turn their sights on Texas instead of Nashville. Meet my newly-found friend and fellow musician Grace Partridge. This youthful 19 year old has recently made Texas her new home. She began fiddling at age four in Rigby, Idaho. Grace worked her way through the National Fiddle championships in Weiser, Idaho, becoming a five-time national champion. She’s even played on the Grand Ole Opry. Still yet, her desire to become a true Texas Fiddler has brought her to the Lone Star State. I’m pretty sure we can thank Bob Wills for that.
