There is the blues and then there is the Texas blues. Legendary guitarist, Stevie Ray Vaughan, is credited with a blues revival in the 1980s. He was described by the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame as "the second coming of the blues"

Sadly, his life was cut short. He died in a helicopter crash, August 1990. But his music lives on and so do his hats! He wore a plateau hats and made them look so cool people started calling them the “SRV hats. You can buy an autographed Stevie Ray Vaughan hats at auctions. 

Texans love Stevie Ray Vaughan so much there is a memorial statue of him at Auditorium Shores on Lady Bird Lake, in Downtown Austin, Texas. Is he wearing a hat? Of course!

Young Accordionists Carry on the Conjunto Musical Tradition

Even though Weird Al Yankovic made the accordion a cool musical instrument, I still don't know many musicians who play. Especially, not young kids. However, it was no surprise for me to find young accordion players in Texas!

German settlers brought the accordion to Texas and northern Mexico in the mid-1800s. The Mexicans quickly adopted it and used to make their own style of music; a music genre called “conjunto”. Ramón Ayala is known as the “King of the Accordion". He inspired a generation of youngsters to carry on this musical tradition.
