Reckless Kelly *are* brothers Willy and Cody Braun, from Idaho I believe,
Willy on vocals and guitar and Cody playing fiddle and mandolin. Together with
drums, bass and more guitar, I'd call them a country band that knows how to
rock. They pulled into Austin a few years ago, and are making quite a hit
around town. During last year's Austin Music Awards, they won "Best New Band"
and "best roots rock band." I don't own any of their albums myself, but I hear
their songs regularly on the radio, and a co-worker has the acoustic "Live
at Stubbs" and I borrow that from time to time.

Note to myself, no one else is likely to care. Paula Frazer has a web
site, like everyone else: www.paulafrazer.com. The band name Tarnation
has been dropped. They are shopping an album; in the mean time, she sang
one song on the Cornershop album and five songs on an album
by The Czars.

I'm eating lunch while reading this and I missed the "z" in that last line,
firing off a Ric Ocasek flashback..

Oh, that one chick on the Cornershop album. Interesting...
(I think this is further proof that Ken and I come from different planets)

resp:58, followup for happyboy :: The Ark schedule lists Billy Joe
Shaver for Wednesday, July 11. "Opening will be Danny Barnes
and the Old Codgers, Danny formerly with the Bad Livers."
Formerly? I hadn't heard about that.
