Turnpike Troubadours sells out multiple nights at historic Gruene Hall
This coming Thursday begins a 3 night run by Oklahoma-based Turnpike Troubadours. They are not a cookie-cutter full instrumentation red dirt band, they are a band that has helped define and refine what the mold is forged from. It just so happens that the Friday and Saturday shows this weekend have been sold out for quite some time and the Thursday night show is on track to either sell out through pre-sales and if not will likely sell to a capacity crowd at the door.
Turnpike Troubadours is fronted by Evan Felker who also plays acoustic guitar. RC Edwards (bass and vocals), Kyle Nix (fiddle and vocals), Ryan Engleman (lead guitar) and Gabriel Pearson (drums and vocals) round out the band. The Turnpike Troubadours have 3 full-length records under their belt (listed below) with hopefully a 4th coming in 2015!
Discography:
2007: Bossier City
2010: Diamonds & Gasoline
2012: Goodbye Normal Street

NYE w/The Departed at RRIH!
Just found out that Cody Canada and The Departed will ring in the new year with a "pre" cd-release show at River Road Ice House! HIPPIELOVEPUNK is their 3rd full length record as a band, and from what I've heard of this new record it is the most "Cody Canada" a record as they've put out since before Cross Canadian Ragweed went on hiatus 4 years ago. I can't wait to get this new record in my hands which I should be able to do on January 13th on the official release date.

Devil's Hollow - "See My Baby"
Go have a listen to Devil's Hollow's new single "See My Baby"!
"Originally a blues power-trio, New Braunfels' Devil's Hollow has evolved into a funky blues-rock powerhouse, driven by lead guitarists Justin Murray and Nick Doe and keyboardist Matt Cain (Spank, Nadis Warriors). Blending elements of 60's power-rock and soulful 70's Southern blues, Devil's Hollow has shared the stage with notable Texas musicians such as 2010 'Austin Musician of the Year' Bob Schneider, Latin rock's Del Castillo and Vallejo, and Dallas' punkabilly kings Reverend Horton Heat. Releasing their long-awaited and much anticipated debut album May 16th at Sam's Burger Joint in San Antonio, Devil's Hollow delivers a big, bold sound rich of superb instrumentation into a sound original, yet familiar."
