Hot Texas Swing Band

With one boot in Cowboy music and the other in Swing, the Hot Texas Swing Band is continuing the trail previously led by artists such as Bob Wills and the Texas Playboys. Backed by a passion for traditional Western Swing, the Hot Texas Swing Band pushes the genre forward with fresh Rockabilly and Latin beats against original material for a new sound and high-energy live shows that have critics and fans raving.

They have been nominated for a 2015 Ameripolitian award and named one of the Top Ten Jazz Bands by the Austin Chronicle for three years in a row.

“Here’s a bunch of guys and gals that sound like they’re really enjoying themselves.  It feels fast and loose, and I suspect was recorded ‘as live’, and that’s what makes it so darn enjoyable. They sure do swing on these 13 tunes including seven originals and Johnny Gimble’s tune Junior’s Shadow. The band’s originals are terrific.  I think HTSB have yet to make the perfect record, and I’m sure that won’t be far off. In the meantime I’ll be enjoying this just fine”.
