INDIE ARTIST OF THE MONTH: TMT-Radio with Darryl Lee Rush
 (May 2008) Darryl Lee Rush’s Live from the River Road Icehouse is one of the best live records of 2007. The CD is a wonderful glimpse of a raucous and rowdy Darryl Lee show.

It is a crowning achievement from the Markham, Texas, native. Check out this month’s Indie Artist profile of Daryl Lee Rush on TMT-Radio. more > |
TMT-Radio: Zane Lewis
 (May 2008) Zane Lewis is a country music phenomenon. He has a great talent for walking that fine line between mainstream country and the dirtier and grittier Texas and Red Dirt style of the genre. For most artists this would be an impossible path. But not for Zane Lewis as his new project Zane Lewis is a testament for the man from Dallas Texas. Zane Lewis is a rowdy and fun record that any country music fan could enjoy, whether from Nashville or Austin or anywhere in between.

CD REVIEW: The Band of Heathens - The Band of Heathens
 (May 2008) The much anticipated and long awaited first studio record from The Band of Heathens is here. The self-titled project is the follow-up to the band’s first two live record releases and the DVD release earlier this year.
To be sure, the first venture of Texas’ best band into the studio was well worth the wait. Produced by master ear and songwriter Ray Wylie Hubbard, with the aid of his good friend Gurf Morlix on the final master switches, and engineered by Pat Manske, The Band of Heathens is the culmination of a team effort. more > |
CD REVIEW: Hans Frank and the Auslanders: Glambilly!
 (May 2008) One look at his hair, which resembles the end result of a Saturday morning cartoon electrocution, tells you that if Hans Frank is part of the Texas Country Music scene, then he's definitely on the fringe. However, Frank's time as the cleancut leader of critically acclaimed country band 10 City Run firmly establishes his credibility in the genre. Well, 10 City Run was officially killed off late last year, and Frank subsequently re-emerged as the leader of The Auslanders. more > |
