Hey guys, this was maybe my favorite podcast, as it features 2 interviews and 2 acoustic performances from 2 of my absolute favorite Texas artists, Charlie Robison and Dale Watson. I come off as a babbling school-girl much of the time, but their genius shines through regardless of my fawning. Enjoy.

For this episode of The 9513.Com Country Music Podcast, we feature a couple of acts who have been helped along the way by winning talent competitions. Darryl Lee Rush was the inaugural victor of the Shiner Rising Star Contest and Caitlin & Will were victorious on last summer’s Can You Duet from CMT. What I think is most interesting is that, contrary to what we have seen in many cases, to win a Country Music talent competition, you just might actually need to posses real talent. Sit back and enjoy as these two big winners display some of that skill that helped them beat out all who dared challenge them.

Now that we are firmly into 2009, it is time to kick start The 9513.Com Country Music Podcast Series. Episode 003, has me wheeling and dealing with Wade Bowen and Chris Knight as well as introducing many folks to the greatness of Bearfoot and Dallas’ own, Eastwood.

This episode features two interviews with artists from very differnt corners of Country Music. I was, however, able to find a common thread among the seemingly opposite performers. Both artists seemed to not concern themselves with the labels that fans and writers often use to describe their sound, and even shared a bit of frustration with me on what it’s like to try to navigate the waters of such classifications that have been put on them and their music.

These artists also share the fact that they aren’t confined to a single, easily defined style or nature. Sarah Borges teeters between the worlds of Rock and Country, while Trent Willmon straddles the geographical and ideological borders of Texas and Nashville. I came away from these visits with a better appreciation for a genre that has such firm roots and allows those roots to grow and form such interesting and exciting branches.

Hey guys, I have been given a great opportunity and I am here to let you in on it.  The folks at The 9513 have asked me to be the voice of a new podcast series that will be featured on the popular Country Music blog/site. For this first one, I sat down with Willy and Cody from Reckless Kelly as they played some tunes and chatted for a bit.  I also did the same chat and sing with Jeremy McComb.  There will be many more in the near future.  I have tons of great interviews, performances and profiles in-store for all y’all.
