Alvin Crow and his Pleasant Valley Boys have been playing up at the Broken Spoke since the 1970's. James & Annetta White have always loved Alvin and his fiddling. Alvin is the one who coaxed James White up on stage to sing and do his famous welcoming speech. Alvin has worked along side James White for years writing songs together and producing records on Broken Spoke Records. James is also the godfather to Alvin's youngest son, Josh Crow. | Dale Watson, "the silver wolverine", is the founder of Ameripolitan music. Dale, along with a few other musicians including Ray Benson, decided that the kind of country music they were playing wasn't really considered country anymore by radio stations etc. The kind of country they play doesn't even barely resemble the country coming out of Nashville these days so they started Ameripolitan Music which encompasses, outlaw, western swing, honk-tonk and rockabilly. | Dale Watson is one of our biggest drawing bands! He packs the dancefloor with great dance music and entertaining original songs such as "South of Round Rock, Texas", "Jonesing for Jones", "I Lie When I Drink"...He has performed on the Late Show with David Letterman and the Jimmy Kimmel Show. |
