On this episode of Roger the Wild Child Show: Nashville edition, we are joined by singer/songwriter's Amanda Kate and Riley Braker!AMANDA KATEBorn in a no-stop-light-town in Red River, NM, Amanda Kate Ferris grew up equally inspired by her small-town upbringing and her mother, Kathy Wright, an artist and entertainer herself. As one of the original “Dean Martin Golddiggers” on the 1960's TV show, 18-year-old Kathy often collaborated with The Rat Pack's crooners, embracing the era's glamour. The apple didn't fall far from the tree, and young Amanda was singing as early as two years old. Inspired by her mother's tales of performing on the stage and screen, she developed her own voice in the church. Amanda added songwriting to her repertoire at age 14, looking again to follow in her mother's footsteps as a full-time musician and artist. During her mother's long sets at Honky Tonks between California, New Mexico, and Texas, Amanda fell in love with the music of The Judds, Trisha Yearwood, Faith Hill, Leanne Womack, and Brooks & Dunn, all of which heavily influenced her current sound.  Her love of Country music led her to chase her dreams in Nashville. Over the next few years, she went through multiple groups, opportunities, and countless hours spent on her craft in Music City. On the brink of letting these long sought-after dreams go, Amanda decided that she needed a change of pace and settled in with her family. After she and her husband welcomed their first child, Amanda was back on stage, this time performing Carrie Underwood songs in a national touring cover band, Blown Away. Their incredible renditions of Underwood's hits led to an unsolicited and highly coveted spot on Executive Producer Jimmy Fallon's new show for E!, “Clash of the Cover Bands.” Through Underwood's iconic songs, Amanda was able to fulfill her love of entertaining and singing, but she felt a calling to again create her own original music.  The show was a full circle moment for Ferris, appearing on the same network that gave her mother her start over 50 years ago. Off-screen, this allowed Amanda the opportunity to highlight her new original music, simultaneously releasing her self-titled EP to rave reviews, including editorial placement on Spotify's Texas Country Now, the largest Red Dirt Playlist. In early 2022, Ferris' love for traditional Country sparked the interest of renowned producer Jimmy Ritchey (Clay Walker, Mark Chesnutt), with whom she recorded five new tracks reminiscent of the traditional country stylings of Ferris' favorites from the 90s. Look out this fall for “Baby Don't,” Ferris' debut on Texas radio. “Baby Don't” honors her Texas Country roots and showcases her captivating vocals. This lead single will be followed by an EP in early 2023 to reflect upon her western influences and love of Country music history. A cowgirl at heart, she spends any free time riding her horses with her family at Rockin R Ranch in Palmer, TX.  On the road, Amanda has graced the stage with such acts as Tracey Lawrence, Bailey Zimmerman, Deana Carter, Warren Zeiders, Chase Rice, Priscilla Block, Casey Donahew, Josh Abbott Band, and more.  RILEY BRAKERRiley is a gifted singer-songwriter, with a voice tailor made to tell her heartfelt stories of life as a young adult. She crafts her tales of love, woe, and regret, and infuses her characters with so much life, the listener feels as if they are experiencing the events first handy  

The Josh Abbott Band will be in concert this Thursday September 7th at Barrelhouse Brewing!

Neil Medley is one of the very first guys I met when I moved to Nashville about 20 years ago. Originally from Louisville, KY, he started his career in marketing but about 13 years ago he decided to go full time into songwriting. In this episode you're going to hear about that transition and how that move led him quickly to his first album cut with Luke Bryan. You'll hear about the songs he wrote after that like "Wasn't That Drunk" for the Josh Abbott Band that featured Carly Pearce as her first radio release. You'll hear about other songs he wrote for Kid Rock, Lindsay Ell, Jason Aldean and Tyler Farr along with his first #1 "Made For You" that he wrote with Benjy Davis and Joey Hyde for Jake Owen. Other than his songwriting success, I remember sitting in his back music room when I first moved to town and we would pass the guitar around. His voice was always really unique and special to me and I'm so excited about a new project he has coming up! He sent me a sneak peak of a new album he has written for himself, with him on vocals, just before we recorded this episode. It's so good and it's such a special album to Neil. Be looking for that album, called "South End Kid" coming out on September 29, 2023. Neil says he doesn't want to be blown away by the speakers, he wants to be pulled into them and that's exactly what this record was like for me. By the way, if you're around the Nashville, TN area at the end of September, Neil will be playing and promoting that record at The Listening Room on September 28. You'll hear more about the making of that project, his take on male/female ratio on radio and more in this episode. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did capturing a little bit of his story for you all. Let us know!

Sponsored by www.BetterHelp.com/TheBarnhttps://www.dylanwheelermusic.com/Saturday, May 27th, 2023The Camp at Lake WappapelloDylan WheelerDoors 6:30 All Ages!Dylan Wheeler, also known as the "Broke Ass Kid," embodies the evolution of the Texas Independent Music Scene and represents the level of talent it can produce. His music combines the depth of a singer-songwriter with a fusion of Rock and Alternative genres, injecting a breath of fresh air into a scene often dominated by Country roots. With a powerful vocal range and a singing style influenced by icons like Chris Cornell, Eddie Vedder, and Layne Staley, Dylan Wheeler stands out as a truly unique and exceptional artist.His music defies categorization, appealing to a wide audience and fueling dreams of success. Currently living his dream, Dylan's future looks promising as he continues to make his mark in the industry. Hailing from Edgewood, Texas, he cut his teeth in small dive bars, following in the footsteps of his East Texas heroes. However, what sets Dylan apart is his ability to cultivate a dedicated fan base even before officially releasing his music.Through social media platforms like Twitter, Dylan garnered fans from all over by sharing acoustic videos of both original songs and covers. One of his videos, a rendition of the 90s country hit "Strawberry Wine," quickly gained over 100,000 views, providing a glimpse of his potential. This early fan base eagerly anticipated the release of his first EP, "Tell Me If I'm Wrong," in late 2018. The songs from this EP accumulated tens of thousands, and later hundreds of thousands, of streams, solidifying Dylan's destiny as a full-time musician.In 2019, Dylan made the life-changing decision to quit his job in the Oil & Gas industry and fully commit himself to music. Embracing this new path, his schedule filled up with bigger and better shows, frequent trips to Nashville for writing and recording, and continuous engagement with his growing fan base. Each new song released showcased his artistic growth, attracting new fans while further captivating his existing supporters.Within just a few years, Dylan's journey has transformed from receiving tens of thousands of views on acoustic videos to amassing tens of millions of streams across major platforms. He has transitioned from playing small dive bars to selling out major venues in his home state and beyond. However, Dylan sees himself as just beginning, believing that the sky's the limit. Not bad for a "broke-ass kid beating on his guitar." Not bad at all.#Texas #RockCountryMusic #NewMusic #Band #Singer #Songwriter #Guitar #Drums #Bass #Vocals #Energetic #Lively #Soulful #Passionate #Authentic #Lyrics #Storytelling #Powerful #Dynamic #GenreBending #Fusion #Southern #Roots #Rebel #Whiskey #HonkyTonk #Cowboy #Boots #Hat #TexasPride #OpenRoad #Heartland #Americana #Twang #Electric #Acoustic #Stage #Performance #Crowd #Live #Festival #Radio #Album #Single #Hit #Tour #Success #Fans #TexasSpirit #LoneStarState, #TexasCountry #GioAndTheHiredGuns #ParkerMcCollum #KoeWetzel #RandyRogersBand #CodyJohnson #CaseyDonahew #JoshAbbottBand #AaronWatson #FlatlandCavalry #WhiskeyMyers #WilliamClarkGreen #ShaneSmithAndTheSaints #PatGreen #TurnpikeTroubadours #StoneyLaRue #WadeBowen #JoshWard #KevinFowler #KylePark #JonWolfe #SamRiggs #JasonBolandAndTheStragglers #CurtisGrimes #MikeRyan #BriBagwell #ReadSouthallBand #RogerCreager #JohnBaumann #DaltonDomino #ShotgunRider #JoshGrider #AustinMeade #BrandonRhyder #ZaneWilliams #ParkerMcCollum #ReadSouthall #KolbyCooper #SamRiggs #TroyCartwrightThis episode is sponsored by www.betterhelp.com/TheBarn and presented to you by The Barn Media Group.

Megan's first single off the EP “River Time” landed on the Top 40's on all Texas Radio Charts and was played on Texas Country radio stations for over 22 weeks!In between her first and next coming project Megan released two country covers Prayed For You by Matt Stell and Randy Travis' Three Wooden Crosses that one of Texas' biggest artist, Aaron Watson made an appearance on too.

Inspired by idols such as John Mayer, Rob Thomas, and John Rzeznik of the Goo Goo Dolls, Joe's sound is influenced by the alternative rock of the late '90s and early 2000s. Growing up in a music household, Joe has always been awed by the ability to create sounds with instruments. “Music is almost like a portal into another dimension. It takes me to another place where I'm not thinking about anything else but the song.” Haydel moved to Nashville in January of 2020 with nothing but a plan and ambition to fully commit to music. As Joe describes it “for me it's music or bust.”  A year later, Joe inked his first pub deal with Wide Open Music, landed his first outside cut “Even Now” on artist, Chase Bryant, and his own opening slot on Aaron Lewis' Frayed At Both Ends tour. For Joe, no feeling can describe connecting with another person on a musical level. This is just the beginning for Joe, he is excited for what the future holds and cannot wait to share the new music he's been working on very soon.******Roger the Wild Child Show: Nashville is streamed live every Sunday night 8pm ET/ 5pm PT on Facebook, YouTube and Twitter.

This week, we kick things off with Texas singer-songwriter Josh Abbott, who at week's end will be releasing his sixth full-length album, The Highway Kind (Friday, Nov. 13). I feel that The Highway Kind not only has some of Abbott's best songwriting to date, it's also Abbott's strongest full-length both thematically and sonically. Abbott has long been an ambitious album maker with loose conceptual themes throughout his career. It's something I'm not sure he's been given his proper due, but it something that's set him apart from much of his Texas Country leaning peers. It isn't always perfect or came across as well as he's intended, but those grander brush strokes of album themes have always been there. And that's in part what makes The Highway Kind so interesting. Abbott feels loose and comfortable without being fully satisfied. The even balanced nature is a driving force for the album, which is largely inspired by the ease, health, and well-being found in Abbott's home life as a father, husband, son, and so on. The concepts and themes aren't forced or buried due to outside influence or pressure. Rather, lead singles such as "The Highway Kind," "The Luckiest," and "Settle Me Down" fit hand in glove with deep cuts such as "Old Men & Rain," "One More Two-Step," and "Women & Wishes" (which very well should be a single). Abbott leans in and embraces those core familial values that connect one generation to the next. "The Highway Kind" and "Settle Me Down" intertwine with one another as they play off sides of the very same coin. It's specifically there where Abbott sings about the highways that lead you away and return you back to home. It's both the adventurous journey and the hearthstone fire that leads the way back.During this interview, we talk about those themes and concepts of The Highway Kind, recording at Sonic Ranch, songwriting, storytelling, The Panhandlers, Terry Allen, and much more.This episode's presenting partner is Desert Door Texas Sotol.

Solo artist. Frontman. Behind-the-scenes songwriter. For more than a decade, Adam Hood has left his mark both onstage and in the writing room, carving out a southern sound that mixes equal parts country, soul and American roots music. It's a sound that began shape in Opelika, Alabama. Raised by working-class parents, Hood started playing hometown shows as a 16 year-old, landing a weekly residency at a local restaurant. He'd perform there every Friday and Saturday night, filling his set list with songs by John Hiatt, Hank Williams Jr, and Vince Gill. As the years progressed, the gigs continued — not only in his home state, but across the entire country. Eventually even landing himself a three-year nationwide tour opening for Leon Russell. These days, though, Hood is no longer just putting his own stamp on the songs of chart-topping country stars. Instead, many of those acts -- including Little Big Town, Miranda Lambert, Anderson East, Josh Abbott Band, Lee Ann Womack & Brent Cobb -- are playing his songs. In 2016, Hood signed a publishing deal with Warner/Chappell Nashville and GRAMMY Award-winning producer Dave Cobb's Low Country Sound. All while remaining adamantly focused on his own career, playing around 100 shows annually promoting third solo release, Welcome to the Big World, and now his newest release, Somewhere in Between. A showcase for both his frontman abilities and songwriting chops, Somewhere in Between shines a light on Hood's strength as a live performer. He recorded most of the album live at Nashville's Sound Emporium Studios over two quick days. Teaming up with friend and producer Oran Thornton (Miranda Lambert's Revolution, Angaleena Presley's Wrangled) their goal was to create something that reflected the raw, real sound of his concerts, where overdubs and unlimited takes are never an option. The result is a record that reflects Hood's working-class roots, mixing the upbeat thrill of his roadhouse roots-rock songs with the contemplative, stripped-down sway of his country ballads. Joining him in the studio were guitarist Pat McLaughlin, bassist Lex Price, and drummer Jerry Roe. All of whom captured their parts in just a handful of live takes while Hood simultaneously tracked his vocals. Stripped free of studio trickery and lushly layered arrangements, Somewhere in Between is an honest, story-driven record. One that's both relatable and deeply autobiographical, with Hood writing or co-writing ten of the record's eleven tracks, alongside friends like McLaughlin, Brent Cobb -- who also appears on the electrified "She Don't Love Me" -- Josh Abbott, Jason Eady, and plenty of others. Somewhere in Between is an album that finally finds Hood telling his own story. A dedicated family man, he wrote "Locomotive" — a heartland anthem, full of Telecaster twang and sunny swagger — after watching his young daughter develop her motor skills while playing with a set of blocks. Balancing his life as a relentless road-warrior, Hood penned highway ballad "Downturn" about a life filled with wanderlust and long drives from gig to gig. As a blue-collar songwriter, Hood shines a light on everyday experiences — from family and friends to the thrill of Friday nights. Partly because he's stuck to his roots. The native Alabaman still lives in the Yellowhammer State and celebrates America's rural pockets with songs like "Keeping Me Here" and "Real Small Town," two songs filled with images of main streets, open landscapes, hard times, and good people. "It's southern music," he says, grouping Somewhere in Between's wide range of music under an appropriate banner. "That's what it represents: the soulful side of southern music, the country side of southern music, the genuineness of southern culture, and the way I grew up. One of the t-shirts I sell at every show simply says ‘Southern Songs,' and It's a good summary of what I do. It's what I've always done."  

El pasado martes moría el tejano de Lubbock Mac Davis. A partir de la mitad de los 60 se le empezó a reconocer como compositor, firmando temas como "Within My Memory" (Glen Campbell) o "Somethin's Burnin" (Kenny Rogers & The First Edition). Pero, además, fue el autor de "A Little Less Conversation" y sobre todo de "In The Ghetto" para el especial de televisión de Elvis Presley del 68. En un principio, Mac Davis tituló “In The Ghetto” como "The Vicious Circle" y se la presentó a Sammy Davis Jr. en un estudio junto a otros miembros de la comunidad negra. Su propio compositor la grabó de esta forma con la que hemos abierto hoy nuestro tiempo de radio después del tremendo éxito de Elvis en 1969. Sin embargo, la versión original no salió a la luz hasta aparecer en un recopilatorio de 1991 titulado Golden Throats, cuando el artista tejano ya tenía una seria consideración en el terreno del country. Mac Davis era un nativo de la tejana ciudad de Lubbock, que comenzó su carrera artística sin demasiado éxito a comienzos de los años 60. Pasaría después a ejercer de ejecutivo discográfico, un trabajo que le llevó a Los Angeles, donde comenzaría a ejercer de compositor. Como solista, dejó éxitos como "Baby Don't Get Hooked On Me", "Stop and Smell the Roses" y de manera muy especial "Texas In My Rear View Mirror", de tintes autobiográficos. Willie Nelson vuelve a dar ejemplo y recupera "Vote 'Em Out", una canción que exhorta a utilizar la herramienta más poderosa que cualquier ciudadano libre tiene a su disposición: el voto. Y como recuerda, es sagrado y pone el poder en manos de la gente. Está escrita junto a su viejo amigo Buddy Cannon y en ella se encuentra acompañado de Lukas y Micah, animando a sus conciudadanos a que ejerzan su derecho en el Election Day 2020 de Noviembre en Estados Unidos. El arma más grande que tenemos Se llama urna. Así que si no te gusta quién está ahí Vota para echarlo… Palabra de Willie. Terry McBride es de la tejana Austin, hijo de Dale McBride, en cuya banda estuvo tocando, y fue líder de McBride & the Ride, una excelente banda de la primera mitad de los 90 en el terreno del country. Tras disolverse, pasó a ser uno de los compositores más solicitados, especialmente por Brooks & Dunn. Ahora ha decidido grabar en solitario y dar continuidad al EP Hotels & Highways que publicó hace tres años inspirado por los honky-tonks y las salas de baile. Se trata del álbum Rebels & Angels, cuyo tema central lo ha compuesto junto a Chris Stapleton y ha contado, además, con la voz de Patty Loveless, a quien echamos de menos como protagonista de alguna nueva aventura sonora desde hace demasiado tiempo. Terry McBride fue el bajista de Delbert McClinton y, más tarde, trabajó con Lee Roy Parnell y Rosie Flores. Nunca se había puesto al frente de una banda hasta que llegó a Nashville. Su talento como cantante y compositor llamó la atención de Tony Brown, presidente de MCA Nashville y en Junio de 1989, durante la celebración de la desaparecida Fan Fair en Nashville, se creó McBride & The Ride como trío. Debutaron al año siguiente y con su segundo disco, Sacred Ground, del 92 lograron sus mayores éxitos, incluso el segundo puesto de las listas con la canción que les dio título. En TOMA UNO tenemos el compromiso no escrito de compartir pasado, presente y buena parte del futuro de la Americana. Esa es una de las razones por la que estamos anticipando The Highway Kind, el nuevo álbum de la Josh Abbott Band que saldrá al mercado a mediados de noviembre. Desde que se formaron en la Texas Tech University de Lubbock, han pasado a convertirse en una de los más sólidos pilares de la Red Dirt music gracias a canciones en las que su líder refleja situaciones reales y cotidianas que casi siempre tienen que ver con su propia vida. “The Highway Kind” como canción es una de las favoritas de las emisoras tejanas en estas fechas. The Band Of Heathens han sido una de las formaciones más activas en estos tiempos de pandemia. El resultado de su casi frenética actividad se resume ahora en Stranger, un último álbum que aborda el temor existencial de estos momentos con referencias a Albert Camus o a Robert Heinlein. Un tema tan sobresaliente como “Asheville Nashville Austin” ensalza la magia de la carretera en todo su esplendor a través de un tema de medio tiempo convertido casi en un himno sobre los espacios abiertos y los buenos tiempos. Otra de las bandas que ha aprovechado el aislamiento para crear nuevas propuestas sonoras es Drive-By Truckers, que publicará a mediados de diciembre por sorpresa un nuevo álbum, The New OK, aunque está ahora disponible para descarga digital. Una vez más la banda de Athens, en Georgia, ha canalizado sus frustraciones que ya manifestaban en su disco de enero, The Unraveling, y han hecho una selección de las canciones que habían grabado en Memphis los Sun Studios de Memphis en el otoño de 2018, añadiendo un par de temas recién compuesto por Patterson Hood y la inesperada versión de un tema de los Ramones como "The KKK Took My Baby Away", manteniendo esa postura desafiante ante la depresión. “Sarah’s Flame” es una de las deliciosas canciones que ha compuesto Mike Cooley y que nos recuerdan que pudimos haber visto a banda la pasada primavera en nuestro país, pero la Covid-19 lo impidió. Joachim Cooder es un californiano de Santa Monica que también debe soportar el “peso de la púrpura” al ser hijo del legendario Ry Cooder. Joachim, un multi-instrumentista centrado especialmente en la percusión tiene una larga andadura que le han encontrado con nombres de la talla de Mavis Staples, Buena Vista Social Club o Dr. John, entre otros. Ayer mismo, se publicó el tercero de sus discos en solitario, Over That Road I'm Bound: The Songs of Uncle Dave Macon, dedicado a las canciones de Uncle Dave Macon, una figura esencial en el desarrollo de la música de raíces norteamericana, a caballo entre el final del siglo XIX y los primeros años del XX. Uncle Dave Macon, conocido como "Dixie Dewdrop", era un banjista de Tennessee convertido en un pionero seminal, a la altura de Jimmie Rodgers. De hecho, cuando Ralph Peer realizó las famosas sesiones de Bristol, él ya había grabado más de 100 canciones. Fue la primera gran estrella del Grand Ole Opry y eso que comenzó su carrera profesional cuando ya tenía 50 años. Joachim Cooder ha utilizado las tonadas de Uncle Dave Macon como punto de partida, jugando con las letras y reelaborando melodías para su instrumento favorito, la mbira. Originalmente es un instrumento africano que los esclavos llevaron a América y que se suele considerar antecesor del piano. “Come Along Buddy” es una melodía creada por Uncle Dave Macon en 1930, descubierta medio siglo después por Stephen Wade en un acetato de prueba en casa de la familia Macon. Steve Earle compuso una canción como “Times Like These” hace cuatro años manifestando su ansiedad por los tiempos covulsos que se avecinaban, pero recordando que siempre puede haber esperanza a pesar de lo sombrío del presente. "Times Like These" se lanzó en principio como una pieza acústica, pero con motivo de la celebración del último Record Store Day se ha publicado una versión grabada durante las sesiones de su último álbum, Ghost Of West Virginia, realizadas en los Electric Ladyland Studios y en la que Steve Earle está acompañado por los Dukes. Se publicó en single de vinilo el 7 pulgadas siendo una edición limitada a 1300 copias. The Mastersons siguen creciendo como propuesta alternativa y respondiendo a la complejidad de la situación actual. A primeros de año publicaban No Time For Love Songs, un disco con el que volvían a poner el foco en sus propuestas como pareja, contando con la producción de su buen amigo Shooter Jennings. Algunas de las canciones grabadas por entonces quedaron fuera de aquel disco porque parecían precisar su propio espacio. La llegada de la pandemia cambió los planes de un calendario lleno de conciertos y aislados en su casa se motivaron para dedicarse a esos nuevos temas con mayor crudeza que su álbum anterior. El próximo 16 de este mes de octubre, se edita el nuevo EP de los Mastersons, Red, White & I Love You Too. Son cinco canciones que miran de frente al dilema moral sobre qué quiere ser Estados Unidos como nación. “Sensitive Souls” es un buen ejemplo de este Red, White & I Love You Too, que ha sido grabado en el estudio casero de la pareja con el apoyo de Jeff Hill, compañero en los Dukes, en las mezclas. Canciones como “A Change Is Gonna Come” pudieron costarle la vida a Sam Cooke. Fue uno de los primeros que se implicó en la industria musical, formando su propia editora y su sello discográfico Su activismo político se fue acentuando según iba ampliando su fama, no olvidando sus raíces. Su implicación en la defensa de los derechos sociales y en contra del racismo le ganó serios enemigos. “A Change Is Gonna Come” fue compuesta por Sam Cooke después de hablar para los manifestantes que habían protagonizado una sentada en Durham, en el estado de Carolina del Norte, en mayo de 1963. Es evidente que el artista de Clarksdale, en Mississippi, estaba influido por “Blowin' In The Wind” de Bob Dylan, una canción que le gustaba mucho y que, incluso, llegó a grabar. Siempre es reconfortante escuchar una canción como esta, que acaba de ser actualizada por Gary Clark Jr., Brandi Carlile y John Leventhal como un mensaje de esperanza para estos tiempos. Es evidente que la música es un nexo de unión entre distintas generaciones y las hermanas Rebecca y Megan Lovell, que forman Larkin Poe, lo dejan claro en su nueva apuesta sonora, Kindred Spirits, que se va a editar el 20 de noviembre a través de su propio sello Tricki-Woo Records. Se trata de un disco de versiones con guiños a Elton John, Neil Young, The Allman Brothers Band, e incluso los Moody Blues. Kindred Spirits expresa su admiración profunda y agradecimiento por artistas que marcaron el camino en épocas precedentes. De hecho, Larkin Poe, nativas de Calhoun, en Georgia, ya había iniciado hace cinco años una serie de YouTube dedicada a rendir homenaje a sus héroes musicales. "Nights In White Satin" es una de las canciones elegidas. Originalmente formó parte de un álbum coral y emblemático como fue Days Of Future Passed de los británicos Moody Blues. Escuchar audio

Josh Abbott of Josh Abbott Band was unintentionally dragged into discussions about Texas governor, Greg Abbott regarding the pandemic.

El 6 de junio de 1980, hace 40 años, se publicaba la banda sonora de la película Urban Cowboy, un día después del estreno de la cinta en Houston, Texas. Urban Cowboy fue dirigida por James Bridges y contaba una relación amor/odio entre "Bud" (John Travolta) y Sissy (Debra Winger) teniendo como punto de encuentro el Gilley's Club, sin ninguna duda, el honky tonk más grande del mundo, abierto en Pasadena, Texas, en 1971 por Mickey Gilley y Sherwood Cryer. El complejo tenía una capacidad de 7,000 personas, repartidas por distintos bares, pistas de baile, escenarios, toro mecánico e incluso rodeo. Aquella película dio origen al llamado Urban Cowboy Movement, que otros relacionaron con el neo-Country o el hill boogie. Su banda sonora fue pieza clave de su éxito, una buena parte de las 18 canciones de su doble LP se incluyeron en el Top 10 de singles de country y otros llegaron a la cima de las listas. Hoy vamos a recordar aquellos momentos. El guión de Urban Cowboy está basado en la historia de amor real de dos clientes habituales de Gilley, Dew Westbrook y Betty Helmer, de los que el periodista Aaron Latham había escrito en la revista Esquire un reportaje titulado "The Ballad of the Urban Cowboy: America's Search for True Grit". El director de cine James Bridges y Latham lo convirtieron en un guión y Paramount eligió a una estrella en ascenso como Debra Winger (a quien recordaréis no hace mucho en la serie de televisión The Ranch) en el papel de Sissy, y a John Travolta (que había tenido un enorme éxito en Saturday Night Fever y Grease) para interpretar a Bud Davis. Aquella banda sonora se abría con “Hello Texas”, un tema compuesto expresamente para la película, que Jimmy Buffett interpretó al margen de sus grabaciones habituales de entonces, que el músico de Mississippi ya denominaba "rock and roll caribeño", aunque también suele usar el término "Gulf & Western”. Musicalmente, Johnny Lee fue uno de los grandes protagonistas de la banda sonora de Urban Cowboy. Nativo de Texas City, creció en una granja de Alta Loma, también en el Estado de la Estrella Solitaria escuchando a Elvis, Jerry Lee Lewis y Chuck Berry, formando una banda de rock'n'roll durante sus años escolares en Santa Fe llamada Johnny Lee & The Roadrunners, con la que ganó distintos concursos locales. Johnny Lee se convirtió en toda una sorpresa. Apareció en la cinta, y dos de sus canciones se incluyeron en la banda sonora. "Lookin' For Love", el tema central que él interpretaba, llegó a la cima de las listas de pop y country en aquel mismo año y vendió más de un millón de copias. Es posible que el Gilley's fuera al country lo que Studio 54 en Nueva York fue a la disco music. Lo que nadie puede negar es que con aquel local se sentaron las bases para la aparición de otros clubes tejanos y más allá, incluidos el Billy Bob's Texas de Fort Worth (fundado al año siguiente del éxito de la película) y el Cowboys Dancehall de San Antonio (inaugurado en el 98). Los clientes habituales, conocidos como "Gilly Rats", hicieron de Gilley’s una especie de familia, aunque no era precisamente un lugar familiar. La producción de Urban Cowboy corrió a cargo de Irving Azoff, un manager de artistas como REO Speedwagon y Dan Fogelberg que adquirió solvencia en la industria musical por su estrecha relación con los Eagles. Fue fundador de Full Moon y Giant Records e influyó muy directamente en la selección de artistas para la banda sonora de la película, incluyendo a varios de sus representados. “Times Like These” la representación de Dan Fogelberg. Al año siguiente, la canción formaría parte del doble álbum The Innocent Age del músico de Illinois, posiblemente el trabajo más reconocido de su carrera. En el tema, Fogelberg tocaba todos los instrumentos excepto la batería, que estuvo en manos de Russ Kunkel. Bonnie Raitt, que hizo un cameo en la cinta, incluyó dos temas en la banda sonora, ninguno de ellos editado en sus álbumes oficiales. Así ocurrió con "Don't it Make Ya Wanna Dance", una canción del tejano de Austin Rusty Wier que fue versionada por artistas como Jerry Jeff Walker, Todd Snider, Chris LeDoux o John Hiatt. Ninguna película influyó en el country como lo hizo Urban Cowboy, ni siquiera Pure Country con George Strait a comienzos de los 90. Y ningún otro club lo hizo tanto como Gilley’s. En cierta manera, Urban Cowboy capturó el espíritu de la vida nocturna que una parte de los americanos anhelaba. Las botas vaqueras, los sombreros y las grandes hebillas se pusieron de moda… y es algo que todavía se mantiene, habiendo saltado fronteras. El presente nos cita con Margo Price que en la primavera de 2018 estuvo actuando durante tres noches en la llamada “Mother Church of Country Music”, el mítico Ryman Auditorium de Nashville y ahora ha publicado por sorpresa una selección de 11 cortes tomados de aquellos conciertos en el álbum Perfectly Imperfect at the Ryman, muy pocas fechas antes de lanzar su nuevo disco de estudio, That’s How Rumors Get Started. Durante aquellas fechas, la artista tuvo invitados como Jack White, Sturgill Simpson –que ha producido su nuevo álbum- y Emmylou Harris, con la que cantó a dúo en esta versión a “Wild Women”, que originalmente formó parte de All American Made, el segundo trabajo de Margo Price en 2017 con esta combinación de twang tejano, country de Nashville y soul de Memphis. Neon Cross ha fortalecido la carrera de Jaime Wyatt y ha afianzado la personalidad de la artista californiana. La producción tan afinada de Shooter Jennings ha reforzado sus propuestas sonoras para contar sus luchas reales contra el dolor, la adicción y la aceptación de su sexualidad. Esto último se refleja en "Rattlesnake Girl", arropado en ciertos elementos cercanos a la psicodelia. Cantar, como hace Jaime, sobre su orientación sexual no es algo que se aborde con frecuencia en la country music, por lo que escucharlo de una mujer que aún está despegando en ese género resulta audaz y emotivo. Kathryn Legendre nació en la tejana Helotes y se ha localizado en la escena de Austin con el mejor espíritu del honky tonk. Debutó en 2013 y por el momento suma álbum y un par de EPs hasta la aparición de su más reciente novedad, "One Long Sad Song", cambiando el enfoque para perfeccionar su forma de componer canciones mientras el mundo viaja por extrañas carreteras. Kathryn Legendre casi nunca ha seguido las tendencias que se suponen y sus influencias conectan con los modos de componer de Guy Clark o Merle Haggard, y filtra también las maneras de contar historias de Loretta Lynn, Bonnie Raitt o Linda Ronstadt. Un Ep y dos álbumes es el cargamento sonoro de The Golden Roses, una formación con sede en la tejana Austin, que en Smell The Roses al que da nombre genérico esta canción, cantan a sus experiencias basándose en sus propias influencias en las que hay espacio para el country, el bluegrass, Western swing y algo de rock 'n roll, todo ello filtrado por locales emblemáticos como el Broken Spoke y de forma muy especial el Ginny’s Little Longhorn Saloon, donde aprendieron casi todo lo que saben. “Smell The Roses” ha contado con Zachary Moulton de Mike and the Moonpies como invitado en la Steel guitar. Mike & The Moonpies se han refugiado en Touch of You- The Lost Songs of Gary Stewart, un álbum de canciones inéditas del músico de Jenkins, en el Condado de Letcher, en Kentucky, que habría cumplido 76 años el pasado jueves de no haberse suicidado en diciembre de 2003, unas semanas después de que su mujer muriera de neumonía. Jamie Lin Wilson, Courtney Patton y Zac Wilkerson son algunos de los invitados en esta aventura, además de un dúo con Mark Wystrach de Midland en “Smooth Shot of Whiskey”, una canción que el artista desaparecido compuso con Dean Dillon y Frank Dycus y que quedó fuera de un EP de Dillon y Gary Stewart que en principio era un proyecto más amplio. Midland tomó su nombre de una canción de Dwight Yoakam como "Fair to Midland", que apareció en 2003 en su álbum Population Me. Ahora también han jugado con el título de un Lp tan emblemático del músico de Kentucky como Guitars, Cadillacs, Etc. Etc. para dar nombre a un nuevo EP, con algunas versiones acústicas de sus canciones más conocidas, que han llamado Guitars, Couches, Etc., Etc. La grabación se hizo durante la cuarentena desde las casas de sus tres miembros. "Fourteen Gears" trata sobre un camionero que piensa amor especial mientras usa los "14 engranajes" de su Peterbilt (una marca de camiones de gran tonelaje) para "volver a tenerla” en sus brazos. Es una canción llena de nostalgia sobre conductores de esos trucks de 18 ruedas. Siempre hay que dar gracias por buenos amigos, el amor verdadero, los pueblos pequeños, la cerveza fría y un par de botas gastadas. Eso hace la Josh Abbott Band en su nueva canción, “The Luckiest”, donde tiene tiene un buen recuerdo hacia “King George”, es decir George Strait, por seguir haciendo discos de country. La banda de Lubbock afincada en Austin ha superado con creces la personalización en Josh Abbott y ha dirigido sus esfuerzos a profundizar en los sonidos del Lone Star State, sin perder la conexión con la tradición. Sus canciones suelen tener una carga de positividad, como en este caso, y detallan la cotidianeidad de las pequeñas ciudades de ese inmenso estado, con sus romances, sus problemas y sus inquietudes personales.

Solo artist. Frontman. Behind-the-scenes songwriter. For more than a decade, Adam Hood has left his mark both onstage and in the writing room, carving out a southern sound that mixes equal parts country, soul and American roots music. It's a sound that began shape in Opelika, Alabama. Raised by working-class parents, Hood started playing hometown shows as a 16 year-old, landing a weekly residency at a local restaurant. He'd perform there every Friday and Saturday night, filling his set list with songs by John Hiatt, Hank Williams Jr, and Vince Gill. As the years progressed, the gigs continued — not only in his home state, but across the entire country. Eventually even landing himself a three-year nationwide tour opening for Leon Russell. These days, though, Hood is no longer just putting his own stamp on the songs of chart-topping country stars. Instead, many of those acts -- including Little Big Town, Miranda Lambert, Anderson East, Josh Abbott Band, Lee Ann Womack & Brent Cobb -- are playing his songs. In 2016, Hood signed a publishing deal with Warner/Chappell Nashville and GRAMMY Award-winning producer Dave Cobb’s Low Country Sound. All while remaining adamantly focused on his own career, playing around 100 shows annually promoting third solo release, Welcome to the Big World, and now his newest release, Somewhere in Between. As a blue-collar songwriter, Hood shines a light on everyday experiences — from family and friends to the thrill of Friday nights. Partly because he’s stuck to his roots. The native Alabaman still lives in the Yellowhammer State and celebrates America's rural pockets with songs like "Keeping Me Here" and "Real Small Town," two songs filled with images of main streets, open landscapes, hard times, and good people. "It's southern music," he says, grouping Somewhere in Between’s wide range of music under an appropriate banner. "That's what it represents: the soulful side of southern music, the country side of southern music, the genuineness of southern culture, and the way I grew up. One of the t-shirts I sell at every show simply says ‘Southern Songs,’ and It's a good summary of what I do. It's what I've always done." For More Information On This Podcast: Visit http://cowboysindians.com and search "Tales From The Trail".

If you’re in the know, you know who David Macias is. If you don’t, allow me to introduce to you one of the most brilliant minds in the music industry today. David has been causing disruptions through his life. He has won quiz bowl tournaments for his alma mater that has been historically a black university, he worked his way up to the top to eventually work directly under Clive Davis, he has a Grammy as a producer, he graduated from Leadership Music, and he and Deb Markland developed a business that is bucking trends in the music industry. That business…Thirty Tigers. Thirty Tigers is a full service record label that has worked with clients Carlos Santana, Jason Isbell, Lucinda Williams, Patty Griffin, Trampled by Turtles, The Avett Brothers, Low, Ryan Bingham, Flogging Molly, Jason Isbell, The Josh Abbott Band, Chase Rice, Casey Donahew, The Eli Young Band, Will Hoge, Aaron Watson, St. Paul & the Broken Bones, and many others. I met David in an apartment inside the label and we had a chat about streaming services, his thoughts on the present day music industry, and what is Thirty Tigers up to. You even get a sneak peek inside the deal you would get if you were a Thirty Tigers artist. We try to project what will happen in the near future of streaming services and the industry as a whole.
