Heart Of Texas Records Showcase

In this week's episode we're featuring music exclusively from the fiercely independent and staunchly traditional Heart Of Texas Records. Based in the small town of Brady, Texas (the city nearest to the geographical center of the state, hence "Heart Of Texas"), Heart Of Texas Records is the only label (this reviewer knows of) which focuses exclusively on fiddle and steel guitar-driven traditional country music. Like Starday Records before it, Heart Of Texas Records has become a destination for up-and-coming country traditionalists as well as another chance for country stars of yesterday, giving a slew of legends a home to be heard on record once again. We'll feature a stack of music from the Heart Of Texas Records impressive catalogue and we'll also attempt to tell the story of a young Brady DJ and promoter who's passion for tradition helped establish the most important organisation in existence in the 21st Century for fans of hardcore country music.

Om Podcasten

Some call it old country; classic country; real country. We call it traditional country, and that's exactly what we do here at "If That Ain't Country". For three hours each week, we feature the very best traditional country, honky tonk, bluegrass and western swing from the golden years 'til today. It's pretty simple but we think you'll like it. Hosted by Western Red - it's US country with an Australian twist, keeping true to the traditions that make country great. With a genuine love and deep respect for the foundations of the genre, the legends are right alongside the best of today's independent artists - a mix you won't find anywhere else.
