Texas comes back from the brink with a celebration of Resilience, Strength, and Community Spirit!
The Texas Country Music Festival 2020 was to be the first of its kind held in Texas. Previously the Texas Country Music Round-Up was an event attended by Grey Nomads, Balladeers and Bush Poets. 2020 was all about modernising the event and encouraging all ages to attend. Unfortunately, before the event took off it had to be cancelled due to COVID.
2021 was looking to be a great success – with the border open again after being closed for approximately 13 months, it looked like a successful event was in order. The festival was advertised, tickets were selling at a great rate, and it was the talk of the town – until less than three months out, the borders closed again. It was unfortunate, however, with ticket holders and artists hailing from New South Wales, that it did not seem economical or even fair to forge ahead. The decision was made to cancel.
2022 has rolled around and the committee is determined to hold a successful festival with headliners The Wolfe Brothers heading to town to ignite the party! Andrew Swift, multi-Golden Guitar winner and ambassador for the famous Dog on the Tuckerbox, will bring the goods when he rocks up and there will be big performances from Will Day, Josh Setterfield, Natalie Pearson, Amy Ryan, Riley Young, Phil & Sam, The Billy Gudgeon Band, as well as walk-ups with Pete “Smokey” Dawson.
Tom Wolfe of The Wolfe Brothers says, “We are beyond excited to be heading to Texas QLD! This festival is going to be a special one. People are travelling from all over the country to party! We can’t wait to bring our show to Texas.”
Will Day adds, “Being a proud Goondiwindi boy, I cannot wait to play this amazing festival so close to my hometown. It’s an amazing line-up which I’m very proud to be a part of.”
