T. Gozney Thornton sings Texas
T. Gozney Thornton is a personal favorite of mine for several reasons. I’ve known him a really long time, we do a cruise together called the Tex Mex Fandango, and he plays music I like to listen to as well as dancin’ music. He is about as Real Texas as it gets.
He got his start back in Austin during the good old days that some of us of a certain age can still remember. At least we remember parts of it. He has recorded with plenty of big names you would know if I was a name dropper, and he really knows a boatload of folks in the music business. I mentioned a few to him one time and he had a story or comment about each one. He has recorded in Willie’s studio, played on the West Coast, was voted one of KOKE’s favorite bands in Austin, is great friends with Augie Meyers of the Texas Tornados, and lots of other Texas musicians. And for good measure, he is a two time winner of the Simply Texas Blues Festival and has qualified for the National Blues Competition in Memphis. He plays venues large and small, he just doesn’t chase down the road like he used to in his younger days.
He has a good size ranch just outside of San Angelo in the Knickerbocker community and is a cell tower mogul in his spare time. You can read all about him on the Tex Mex Fandango.com site. It’s a great story!
He has been nominated for a Grammy and his newest song, Necesito Nada Mas, is a sure chart buster in two genres, I’ll do a separate blog post about that song when he gets it ready for sale. It’s a dandy and it’s a sure fire big time hit if I ever heard one. You can read more about T. Gozney Thornton, his band, and the cruise we do with him here on the Tex Mex Fandango site.
