Willie Nelson, Rhett Miller, Shawn Colvin, Robert Earl Keen and More Pay Tribute To Sara Hickman on Best of Times With an unwavering dedication to increased awareness and funding for arts education and a passion for art and the creative process, Sara Hickman provides a unique and powerful voice for women, her generation and the value and importance of the arts in school.

Jack Ingram and the Roots of the Texas Country Scene Rich Kelly
32 Jack Ingram and the Roots of the Texas Country Scene Rich Kelly Jack Ingram performing at Gruene Hall, March 31, 2000. Photo by and courtesy of Jeremy Elliott. In May of 2016 Guy Clark, a songwriting giant in both his native Texas and his adopted Nashville, passed away. A week later, a bus of Clark’s Tennessee friends delivered their mentor’s cremated remains to fellow artist Terry Allen’s Santa Fe home for a wake for the legend. The intimate picking party featured a who’s who of alternative country luminaries including Steve Earle, Emmylou Harris, Vince Gill, Joe Ely, Rodney Crowell, Lyle Lovett, 33 and Robert Earl Keen. Among the impressive gathering of singer-songwriters, only two were under sixty years old: Allen’s son Bukka, an accomplished accordionist, and Jack Ingram.1 The 45-year-old Ingram had come a long way from his musical beginnings in Dallas’s Deep Ellum more than twenty- five years earlier. Along with the chance to honor one of his heroes and inspirations, the invitation signaled Ingram’s ascension into the pantheon of Texas’s elite singer-songwriters. Along the way Ingram pushed against the prevailing musical winds, played a key role in reviving fan interest in original Texas country music, and served as the key inspiration for the early artists of the emerging Texas Country scene. In the 1990s in college cities and towns throughout Texas, a Kacey Musgraves. Despite the genre’s widespread popularity, regional country music scene developed. The artists and fans there has been little academic examination of its beginnings or in this musical movement consciously strove to revive the values impact.

His Road Back Home
Robert Earl Keen His Road Back Home By Joanne Liu Photos by Scott Vallance - VER SINCE THE 1970s WHEN Robert Earl Keet marked his college days at Texas A&M with front- Eporch picking and fiddling along with musicians the likes of Lyre Lovett, he has been steadily shaping his singer- songwriter legacy. Keen has 17 albums to his name, with songs like Gringo Honeymoon, Mery Christmas From the Family and The Road Goes On Forever livening up music history books with their indecorous characters and sharp-witted narration. Over the past few decades, he’s gathered a legion of loyal followers and continues to strike emotional chords wherever he plays. {The State of Texas honored him by proclaiming May 10, 2005, as “Robert Earl Keen Day.”) But despite his lyrics, accolades and fans’ hearty singdong renditions, the road does aut go on forever. That’s because for Robert Earl Keen, the road ends in the Texas Hill Country where he and his family make their home. Keen’s music ties him to the road 120 days a year, so when he is back home, it’s alI the sweeter. Born in Houston in 1956 to a petroleum engineer and family law attorney, he now lives with his own lamily - wife Kathleen and daugh- ters Clara, 11, and Chloe, 6 - among more than a half- dozen pets with names such as Wheedle and Bro. Though he claims to be an animal-tolerant guy surround- ed by animal lovers, Keen truly has a big heart. (For exam- ple, he discovered and rescued one animal - now a family pet - on a roadside just about ready for a good trampling by a herd of cows.) Perhaps he takes after his soft-hearted mother, one of the first female attorneys in Houston in the late 195Os, who “took every indigent case that ever walked in her office,” Keen says.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS In 1992, during my second year of college, I would occasionally tag along with Mike Kilian, a high school friend, to his Alpha Tau Omega parties just west of the campus of the University of Texas at Austin. Not knowing many people, I usually ended up watching the band. This is how I first heard and met Jack Ingram, a fledgling performer and SMU ATO. At the time, none of us could know Ingram was a harbinger of a generation of Texas musicians who, inspired by Robert Earl Keen, would lead a resurgence of interest in original, Texas country music, an echo of the progressive country of the music of Ingram’s, Kilian’s, and my childhood.

Townes Van Zandt 2
Townes Van Zandt By Dave Hoekstra April 22, 1990 The blown-gasket blues of Townes Van Zandt suggests he might have been another Hank Williams Sr., while smooth-driving songcrafting points toward commercial country pop potential. But Townes Van Zandt is content with being Townes Van Zandt. The reclusive fortysomething Texas singer-songwriter is best known for writing "Poncho and Lefty," covered by Willie Nelson and Merle Haggard, and "If I Needed You," which has been recorded by Emmylou Harris. Van Zandt cuts to the heart with the warble of a process server and the wisdom of a surly judge. The simple power of his music presents more complex paths. "If you listen to the music, you do get that impression," Van Zandt said in an interview from his Nashville, Tenn., home. "But if you live the life and are buffeted by all the other things that happens to one, it seems that just from lifestyle, I never could have been anything other than this kind of traveling folk singer. I'm just a lone voice on the prairie. "I was real wild and crazy for a long time. I had no address, phone or anything like that. I lived in the mountains and drank all the time. I gambled. I almost died a few times, but I'm past all that. It was Grand Ole Opry material, right? "I'd be too bashful to be anything else." Van Zandt will make a rare local appearance with Guy Clark and Robert Earl Keen Jr., in "An Evening of Texas Songwriters" at 7:30 p.m.

The Improbable Rise Of
Two Texas musicians swapped songs around a campfire in the wee hours before dawn. Fifty hardy souls stood in a circle in rapt attention, silently praising their good fortune to have stumbled across the scene. The lanky guitarist with the black cowboy hat struck chords that recalled an era when Texas music was more popular than Jesus or the Beatles. Rusty Wier stretched his chin skyward and closed his eyes like a wolf serenading the moon. His magnetism remained strong despite three decades of tequila-drenched singalongs, such as this one in April 1999 at a Bosque County music festival. Cactus Jack drinks coffee black Tells me it's my lucky day Five o'clock in the Texas morning And I've come a long, long way Wier's characteristic voice rose like campfire smoke, drifting and curling through the crowd, infusing warmth and a righteous feeling that comes from witnessing something fleeting and rare. The crowd erupted when the song ended, and Wier flashed his toothy smile. The second musician took a turn, but he lacked Wier's charisma. He mumbled a pre-song introduction, then sang in a voice no better than those found behind a million shower curtains. The spell was broken, and a few folks strode off into the night. Greenhorns might have wondered how this guy managed to muscle in on the spotlight. Texas music fans knew better. They recognized him as Larry Joe Taylor, a coastal-and-western music entertainer and founder of a festival that helped spark a Texas music revival, launched a few careers, and resurrected several others.
