Thankfully, there are still cats who throw down authentic Rockabilly and Country music, and one of them is Texas music great Dale Watson. Listening to Watson’s music is like going back in time to when Honky Tonk meant a fun groove and the story-songs were about true life blues and not all silly. Watson, Austin’s King of Country Music, is a true believer, and his music is the real deal.
Watson’s Cincinnati stop is a part of Fountain Square’s free, every-Tuesday “American Roots” music series. Read more in this week’s Sound Advice.
