Texas Homegrown Music with Maylee Thomas

Jason Elmore

Jason Elmore and Hoodoo Witch is my guest this week in the studio. He’s got a new record out on Halloween and we will feature some songs from it. It’s a little more rock than blues this time around and I’m certain you’ll find a cut or two that moves your soul. Jason has been gracing stages for a couple decades and I’ve been a fan for years. He’s what way we say in Texas “ the REAL deal”.

Say Zuzu

Say ZuZu are my guests this week. You’ll need to listen to this one to find out how I found them. Hint - they found me … Maylee … and what a great group of brothers and friends. They truly understand the gift of creating music together and sharing it with others for the sheer joy it gives. Can’t wait to see them on Texas soil again soon. Their roots are from a small town in New Hampshire and they sing about the impact of their mill town and river life. So many songs that speak to the heart of us.

Ottoman Turks

Ottoman Turks are my guests this week. Nathan Wells and Billy Law share the experiences of this band and their trajectory is definitely sky rocketing with band mate Joshua Ray Walker and drummer Paul Hinojo. And Nathan, Billy & Joshua have all released new solo records so you know this band is packed with incredible talent. They’re represented by State Fair Records On top of all of that, they are stellar humans with a unique perspective on life I’ve gotten to see a lot of their uniqueness in the documentary film Texas Music Revolution being featured at a plethora of prestigious film festivals these past few weeks including Catalina and Woodstock Film Festival with more to come.

Staudt Brothers

This weeks guest Staudt Brothers. Reminds me again why I love doing these shows. Stellar talent in Texas still to discover. Staudt Brothers, from Victoria perform elements of country, blues, folk rock and Americana. Isn’t that just called “ Texas” music?! When you throw in lyrical stories that talk about break ups, the hill country and honky-tonks you’ve got my ear. However there’s musical indulgence here that will bring a tear with no words needed. Caleb shares the journey that brought he and his brother onto the stage after watching their Dad croon through life. And we are all benefiting. Catch a show and start listening. It’s yet another group on the rise.. KHYI 95.3 The Range (OFFICIAL) thanks to The Guitar Sanctuary Burress Law PLLC Cadillac Pizza Pub.

Ri Wolf

Ri Wolf from Rī Wolf & The Prairie Hawks is my guest this week and what a stellar individual he is. And the band brings it.

 

After almost 14 years as a collegiate coach he’s now returned to full time music where his gift speaks for itself. I personally am grateful for his years of giving to the young athletes that I know he influenced in a positive way! Teachers don’t often get enough encouragement.

 

Now on to giving us who LOVE music his heartfelt desire to entertain us is apparent.

 

His single “ Easy on Me” is climbing the Texas charts and “ Blood Red River” continues to break records on Spotify.

 

Check out Ode to Larry McMurtry a song to accompany a new book release this month “Pastors of the empty page”.
