In a Texas Honky Tonk

In a Texas Honky Tonk

- Default Title
Description
Four generations of Pure Texas Honky Tonk. Hank Thompson is one of the integral figures in the creation of modern country music. The sound he created with his Brazos Valley Boys bridged the gap between western swing and honky tonk, and he played a dominant role in the country music scene of the 1950s and beyond. Until his recent death Kentucky-born, Florida resident Gary Stewart was revered by Texas country music fans. From his early national hits like She s Actin Single (I m Drinkin Doubles) to his later chart entries included here. Johnny Rodriguez hit the country music scene in 1973 with his Top 10 hit Pass Me By (If You re Only Passing Through). This was only the beginning, his next two singles hit #1. Dale Watson is recognized as the leader of the back-to-basics honky tonk country movement. Proud to be an outsider to Nashville, Dale evokes the sound of classic country of Johnny Cash, Merle Haggard and Ray Price and continues to be a part of the thriving Austin music scene.
