More on Ray Wylie Hubbard:
When F. Scott Fitzgerald issued his classic conclusion that ‘There are no second acts in American lives,’ he failed to envision the career of legendary Texas troubadour Ray Wylie Hubbard. A willing conspirator in the late seventies Cosmic Cowboy revolt that ushered in the mythical Outlaw era, Hubbard was a catalyst in the cultural upheaval that led to the peaceful coexistence of Lone Star music enthusiasts who comprised each end of the social and political spectrum of that troubled time. In the stellar company of iconic colleagues like Willie Nelson, Waylon Jennings, Doug Sahm, and Jerry Jeff Walker, Ray Wylie Hubbard was an architect of the musical legacy that continues to inspire subsequent generations of up-and-coming Texas talent.
Yes, Hubbard is a Texas singer-songwriter, complete with the classic trifurcated handle, fundamental chapter of the canon in his song catalog (“Redneck Mother”), and enough wild hairs in his past to qualify him as a legend. But along the way, his attention began to leave matters extraneous to his art and soul by the wayside and focus on the beauty and potential to be found in the blank canvas of, in his case, the yet-to-be-written and recorded song. The result has been one of the most satisfying musical and lyrical journeys to witness over the last two decades. In the years that followed he evolved into a writer of uncommonly honest portraits of life, alternately mixing deep personal sagas with poignant character studies of those traveling on the dark side of the road.
If one wanted to describe the sound of Ray Wylie Hubbard, one could call it American music, born from the time-honored traditions of folk, country, and roots rock.

More on Dean Winter and The Heat:
Amidst the North Florida oaks, pines and palms a familiar light emanates from over the coast. The sun drenches the landscape during the day and the heat lingers well into the salty night. There’s a smoky bar coated in spilled drinks overflowing with decades of hazy memories and lazy stories. Dean Winter and The Heat have comfortably set up shop at this intersection of lore and nostalgia, nodding their hats to the past while keeping their eyes forward.
Standing on the shoulders of Country music giants, DW&TH press toward a new direction on a forgotten path of Honky-Tonk bars and late-night tributes to the tradition that came before them. They inject new life into classic country stylings with their unique blend of twang, rhythm and Americana soul that uncovers a rare emoDon swept under the rug by the cacophony of the digital age. Behind the sound of four friends from the sunshine state grows a commanding desire for something raw and real.
With every passing release Winter evolves as a songwriter finding details in the experience to draw each listener closer. You feel the push and pull between winning and losing and the fleeting euphoria of a dimly lit bar as reality flickers back into existence when the lights come on. The sun rises and this light shines on your heartache and all the overwhelming feelings that come with growing up and growing old next to the ones you love. Ultimately, the music is best left to be experienced and these stories felt, not told.
