LOCAL MUSIC TRIBUTE PAGE

* NOTE....THIS PAGE IS STILL UNDER CONSTRUCTION*

This is a page dedicated to all of the local bands from right here in New Braunfels.....A town located on I 35 just south of Austin, and just North of San Antonio Tx. Both cities offer a lot of musical talent. Both cities have great places for these bands to play.

New Braunfels is a bit smaller of a town, but is located right in between both of these cities. The bands featured here regularly play in both Austin and San Antonio, as well as clubs Right here in town. Many of these bands regularly venture out much farther, taking their music all over the State, and sometimes all over the country, Representing our Fine little town.

I have always been a supporter of local music, going to see these bands, and others from other towns do what they do best. They get up on stage, not because some record label says they have to, but instead they do it because they have a love for the music, and a need to entertain.

I Strongly encourage everyone to go support live local music, and the Talented musicians who deserve much more than they get for what they do.

This page features bands from right here in N.B., and the surrounding areas.

 

Beans and Rice...

Great friends, and a great rock/blues band. While these guys have enough of their own songs to fill up two albums, their catalogue of covers is also enormous. Their own songs, while being very unique, are still right up there with the covers that they play nearly flawlessly, and with much heart and soul.

Pink Floyd, Stevie Ray Vaughn, ZZ Top, and Even James Brown, are contributors to their influences, and some of their Very well executed covers.

Oh yeah......They play a couple of my guitars too!
