The Backyard is starting to get off the ground and it's a sure bet to be packing 60 in the crowds this summer. Phil has the whole scoop on what owner Sloan Ruth has up her sleeve. Kathleen Hudson The Women Behind Willie's Music Willie Nelson has been a Texas and country music icon since the 1950s. Little is known about the women (primarily his sisters) that 36 helped him along the way. Careers like Willie's can't be sustained without the support of those who love him.

The heat is on and summer is here. From tubing in the river, s'mores on the campfire & hot dogs on the grill it's t-shirts and shorts time as the Hill Country moves into a blazing summer. Grab an ice tea and sit back with Mary Allyce. 35 Carlotta Schmittgen NASCAR & Wheel of Fortune? Carlotta is back on the speedway covering NASCAR and is confronted with coincidence and her husband Rick finds himself midfield having wrangled an audition for Wheel of Fortune. Pretty odd that there were no sports questions for the contestants at a sporting event but, hey, that's TV for you. 38 Joe Herring Folk Festival Misconceptions The Kerrville Folk Festival, the greatest tourist draw in Kerrville, doesn't seem to garner the respect its due from Kerrville locals. Some folks seem to think its a return to the 60's peace and love festivals. Not so. Careers of some of America's best songwriters have been launched from the 12 festival and that has been the main focus for 45 years. Dalis Allen Folk Festival Gearing Up The 46th Annual Kerrville Folk Festival kicked off Memorial Day weekend and continues on through June 11th. There is a lot of music still to go and some great workshops coming up. Dalis has details on New Folk and other festival highlights. 11 Greg Forest CD and Live Concert Reviews At 84 years old, Willie Nelson is still releasing great recordings - Forest takes a look at his most recent, "God's Problem Child" David Broza presents a musical solution to problems in the Middle East and finally a live review of blues legend Kim Simmonds and Savoy Brown. texasheartbeat.com Heart Beat of the Texas Hill Country 5 banderageneralstore.com Western Gifts, Sauces/Salsa/Jams & Texas Gourmet Foods SUMMER Select Men’s Boots Size 7-9.5 = $50! 8 Heart Beat of the Texas Hill Country SUMMER 2017 Sandy & Ernie Dykstra (830) 459-4142 Glenn Modgling (830) 459-4144 Shop (830) 995-2977 comfortcandlecompany.com texasheartbeat.com Heart Beat of the Texas Hill Country 9 10 Heart Beat of the Texas Hill Country SUMMER 2017 THE KERRVILLE FOLK FESTIVAL 46 YEARS AND COUNTING By Dalis Allen Celebrating Songwriters and the art of songwriting once again for 18 straight days at Quiet Valley Ranch!

  • Other Songwriter Quotes
    Buddy Mondlock Other songwriters say: “Buddy Mondlock represents the best of the new generation of singer/songwriters in folk music. His writing style is grounded in the traditions of the past, but has it’s heart in the present. He is one of my favorite writers.” Nanci Griffith “I first saw Buddy Mondlock while hosting the Ballad Tree, a tradition at the Kerrville Folk Festival. This kid in a bathing suit walked up and played “No Choice” to an audience of 30 - 40 people. By the time he got to the second verse, he had 200 people singing along with him. He blew me away! Pay attention to Buddy; he’s a great writer!” Guy Clark “Buddy Mondlock is one of our country’s best songwriters. His approach is gentle and Zen-like, the songs unfurl like little movies and the listener is transported to some distant better place -- and isn’t that what music should be about?” Ellis Paul “Buddy Mondlock is consistently eclectic, consistently innovative and consistently one of the few artists that doesn’t irritate me. I love working with him and he better keep working with me.” Janis Ian “While residing in the world capital of perfunctory 9 - 5 songwriters, Buddy Mondlock chooses to write songs that convey honest emotional depth through a prism of sophisticated harmony and melody. His song “The Kid” is a timeless anthem of innocence discovering reality. I cried like a little girl.” Richard Julian “Buddy Mondlock writes beautiful songs and plays the kind of guitar they deserve. He’s a fine person and a fine artist.” Townes Van Zandt www.buddymondlock.com .
