It's Texas Tuesday, Ya'll!

I came across Amanda's blog and fell in {love} with it!

I'm a very proud Texan and love anything to do with Texas so this blog and blogger are right up my alley!  She and another blogger have Texas Tuesday's that let you focus on anything to do with Texas!

The first thing that  came to my mind to write about was music.  I {love} music from artists that are from Texas or songs that have to do with Texas.  The music is something that just grabs my attention more than others.  I {love} the song writing aspect of it the most I think.  I love hearing why a song was written, where it was written, what was going on in the song writers life when it was being written.  And their shows....

There is just something about going to a live show.  When I was younger I was at pretty much every show that was going on around west Texas.  They were fun and the music just sounded that much better.  Even live album's are great to me.  You can feel the energy from the crowd that is there and it intensifies the music rather than if it was recorded in a studio.  Ahhh.....I {love} it....

Here is my "short" list of artists that I adore from Texas:

Pat Green (can not have a list like this with out him on it :)
Jack Ingram (again...can not have a list like this with out him)
Ryan Bingham
Kacey Musgraves
Wade Bowen
Radney Foster
Brandon Rhyder
Aaron Watson
Miranda Lambert (Yes, even though she's Nashville, the girl is still from Texas.  And very proud of it)
Bruce Robison
Charlie Robison
Randy Rogers Band
Josh Abott Band
Django Walker
Sunny Sweeney
Walt Wilkins


I seriously could go on forever, but this gives you an idea of what I {love}.  Now go to iTunes or Amazon and get yourselves familiar with these artist's.....
