JEFF
FRAZIER -Eclectic, unique,
charming, funny, disarming... This New Braunfels resident jets off often
to the Gallapagos Islands where he gathered some interesting and highly
talented characters to produce the first recorded music compilation for the
area. Jeff is hoping to find similar talents in the Texas Hill Country
for a unique production that blends the old dance sounds of Texas Honky Tonks
with a dash of unique island flavor. Jeff Frazier is a musical
experience that must not be missed.

SPENCE -has
been playing music professionally since he was 15 yrs.old.
He’s
played the Grand Ole Opry twice, and opened shows for such acts as Diamond
Rio, Trisha Yearwood,
Bryan White, Kenny Rogers, and Vince Gill, to name a few but that hardly tells
you what kind of performer Derek Spence really is.
Derek Spence brings a clear, fresh voiced
interpretation to country music.
He
has that squeaky clean, awe shucks, wholesome looks and character of an era we
thought was lost forever. There
are people that sing and there are singers that draw you into their
song…tell you their story so that you see it…believe it.
That is the kind of performer Derek Spence is.
His soul shines through his music and makes you smile.

HIGHWAY
MARK MONACO - www.markmonaco.com
Lyrically Mark paints portraits of relationships, his emotions and drives you in a pickup truck on a journey clear across Texas to the streets of Hollywood. It takes guts to keep the production on a record simple, bare bones, with great vocals and a good band and let the songs speak for themselves. He accomplished that in spades. Guts! What else do you expect from a young guy from Texas? See you on the road Mark.
-Tony Kaye (of the rock group YES)
Over
the last twelve years, Mark has shared the stage with the likes of Jimmie
Vaughan, Cory Morrow, Shelly Larez, and Sisters Morales, and has played dozens
of venues in Texas and Tennessee. Mark has also recorded with Grammy-winning
and Grammy-nominated engineers Chet Himes (Christopher Cross) and Eric Paul (Townes
Van Zant).
Mark softly whispers a broken hearted tune
and then revs your engine as you race down a musical highway - The American
Highway... It's definitely a Texas sized music ride with Mark Monaco.
