RIP Chad Sullins

June 28, 2021June 28, 2021 Brad Beheler

Chad Sullins passed away unexpectedly from an aortic valve rupture on June 27, 2021. Chad Sullins was under appreciated and over talented.

June 2021: Circles and Cycles

Live Music is Back In Texas

May 13, 2021July 6, 2021 Brad Beheler

Like many other industries over the past 16 months or so , things have been on ice for the music industry. This has impacted no other facet of it greater than the independent music scene in Texas and Oklahoma. A house concert here, a tiny bar there, sequestered Mondays on the regular. All of it helped fill the void, but was unable to complete the caverns of despair caused by the loss of live music as we knew it prior to February 2020. Things are changing though. Mile 0 Fest kicked off a swing of big shows that are ramping
