We'll play covers from the likes of Robert Earl Keen, Chris Stapleton, and Tyler Childers (ok, those guys are from Kentucky, but they sure sound like they could be from Texas!) And we'll even play you some of our original Texas music (but don't worry - not too much).

We can't wait to show you what we're all about and spend a great night for a great cause!
