Jason Boland
A well-known and respected Oklahoma native whose band, Jason Boland and The Stragglers, have been releasing what most people consider to be real country music for 10 years. Music that revives the sounds of Merle Haggard, Woody Guthrie on Boland and the Stragglers new album, “Comal County Blue” and not the engineered sounds that can be heard on mainstream country radio.
Chris Thompson of Eli Young Band
One of our favorite bands from North Texas has to be the Eli Young Band. This country quartet met at the University of North Texas and started a country band in their eighth year of touring and recording all over the country. We talked to drummer Chris Thompson who is in Nashville for CMA’s Music Fest. Look for their new album in September!
One on One with Chuck Wicks
One artist to put on your schedule is Chuck Wicks. This singer/songwriter has a top ten hit with “Stealing Cinderella” and a performance at the Grand Ole Opry under his belt. Chuck was kind enough to give me a call to talk about his album and being on tour with Brad Paisley.
