Texas Tunes concert Kelly Willis, Brennen Leigh, and Melissa Carper

Texas Tunes Concert Series

Kelly Willis, Brennen Leigh, and Melissa Carper take the Huffines Performance Hall stage at Lewisville Grand Theater, Saturday, May 11, 8 p.m., Lewisville Grand Theater, 100 N. Charles Street.

BRENNEN LEIGH - "Brennen will carry the torch for REAL American music for her generation, and she's the best one to do it in my opinion," says Ray Benson. Featuring Asleep at the Wheel, Brennen's latest release Obsessed With The West includes 12 original songs that Brennen says, "is my love note to Western Swing; To the rich culture it comes from, as I see it."

KELLY WILLIS - "There's no point in being nostalgic for the generic delineations of the past. We are in the present. That's where Kelly Willis lives, and it's there that she sings, as keenly and movingly as any singer in the country or pop or rock present," says No Depression.

MELISSA CARPER - "Melissa is one of the greatest classic golden era country singers and composers of this generation," says Saving Country Music. Her critically acclaimed 2021 release, Daddy's Country Gold, is just that - 12 glittering Carper originals from the country, western swing and jazz variety. She released her latest album, Ramblin' Soul, in the fall of 2022.
