Turnpike Troubadours at San Antonio Rodeo

Our trip to the 67th Annual San Antonio Rodeo was capped off by a performance from The Turnpike Troubadours, then Midnight River Choir! Even from the nosebleeds, this was a fantastic show! I apologize for how the audio came out, but here's about a minute and a half of the show...

ENJOY!

Sam Riggs' Breathless comes out of the gate strong

Sam Riggs new album Breathless released yesterday and it hit the iTunes top Country albums at number 3 where it continues to sit today, and it was number 22 of All Categories and it remains strong at 28 this morning. I haven't been able to give this album full attention yet, but so far it sounds like Sam Riggs has a winner on his hands!

Don't just listen to me, here's what Lone Star Music Magazine had to say about it:

"In the crowded field of independent Texan talents seeking to write, perform, and sell their own distinct takes on modern country music, occasionally a voice jumps above the fray. Sam Riggs has been on that kind of trajectory lately, finding the sweet spot between the crowd-pleasing sound of modern country music and the sort of detail-oriented, personality-driven songwriting that makes his best songs among the more memorable ones to dominate Texas radio in recent years."

This is Jamie Lin Wilson, Randy Rogers and the Hill Country Choir doing my favorite Kent Finlay song "They Call It The Hill Country".
