Texas Culture
Texas is historically known for oil, cattle, cowboys and wide-open spaces but it also has a rich cultural base. Texas artists such as Buddy Holly, Stevie Ray Vaughn, Don Henley, ZZ Top, Willie Nelson, Toadies and others have topped the charts for decades delivering a rich sound unique to this region.
In Dallas, Deep Ellum is the "So Ho of the South" and for years has proven to be the heart of Texas Blues. Just 3 blocks east of Downtown, the old warehouse district, is a colorful blend of ethnic cultures providing a rich artistic heritage. Once the home of blues legends Blind Lemon Jefferson, Huddie "Leadbelly" Ledbetter, and Lightnin' Hopkins, Deep Ellum is now a thriving, vibrant urban neighborhood. Night life in Deep Ellum is always a unique experience. The very best in current music can be found, from folk to blues, hard driving rock to jazz, reggae to rockabilly or Hip Hop to Cutting Edge Alternative. Edie Brickell, Stevie Ray Vaughn, Sarah Hickman, and countless other musical talents got their start on Deep Ellum Stages. Lone Star Live will showcase cutting edge new talent and deliver the musical experience to the rest of the nation.
