Charlie Robison's first studio release since 2001's Step Right Up, called Good Times, is now out on Dualtone Records and getting rave reviews, being purported as his best writing to date. This latest release finds Charlie with a few years of marriage and fatherhood under his belt, making a transition from 'life of the party' to 'mid-life' adulthood. Not to say that the party's over folks.....On Good Times, Charlie shows a bit of what makes his live performances memorable events, and shows more strength and charisma than he has on any of his past efforts. Texas has long embraced Bandera's son, and it could be with this release, that the rest of the world will catch on to the charisma of this Texas-bred country musician. Patricia Vonne opens the show.   Get tickets

Delbert McClinton
***************************
vvvFeb. 5th  Get tickets

The venerable Delbert McClinton is a legend among Texas roots music aficionados, not only for his amazing longevity, but for his ability to combine country, blues, soul, and rock & roll as if there were no distinctions between any of them. Now in his 4th decade of recording, and his 2nd decade of playing at Gruene Hall, Delbert is just back off the boat from another successful Sandy Beaches Cruise, having spent a week on a boat with the likes of John Hiatt, Fred Eaglesmith, Marcia Ball, Wayne Toups, Chris Knight, and Billy Joe Shaver, all who also play at the Hall on a regular basis. But back on dry land, a re-inspired Delbert wil no doubt be giving his best roadhouse performance, setting the bar for his future gigs in 2005. Get your tickets early, as this show is always a sell-out. get tickets
