I'm a singer song writer and not that good at either but my song Western Sky is nominated By AWA for Western Song 2009 . It was recorded by Judy Coder, Jim Garling and Journey West. In E TN it is tough getting gigs playing western music. So I play as a solo act playing 50 /60 R&R and I sneak western swing in when no one is lookin. I played with Sisters of the Silver Sage about 4 years and I let them do all the work. I stood in the back and strummed away. It was great fun.

At 6:55pm on October 9, 2009, Larry Krause said…: Sometimes it's easier to tell what Western Music ain't! Although I write mostly Western songs, with some Country Gospel and even the odd "Country" one slippin' out, ther's a few things I'm lookin for to define Western. Topic - Western songs need to have a Rural inference or signature to them, showing that they are based from the land and the people close to it. Rythem - They have to be smooth and easy on the ear. You should be able to play them in the barn while working with horses, and have no fear of sudden reactions. Timeless - A true Western song could have been written in 1897, 1941 or 2006, and be able to draw the same reaction from the people who understand the basis from which it was written. Production - The song has to be able to stand alone with only a guitar and singer performing it. If the production becomes the song, slide it into the Country catagory. My 2 1/2 cent werth.

Much obliged for your important e-mail -- I really appreciate it, your thoughts -- I will get back with you later this evening, as I have an early start, getting ready to work a horseback for training for one of my customers.
I also want to review your whole website and other information you sent me.

Cowboys Riding For The Brand -- WE wouldn't have it any other way.
