Cory Morrow April 30, 2009

Fifteen years, and thousands of live shows later, Cory Morrow has emerged as one of the lone star state's best-loved artists . Revered along with college pal Pat Green as a preservationist of the unique Texas music sound, which combines elements of country, bluegrass, swing and blues, Morrow inspires a fierce loyalty in his fans. As an independent artist, he moved 200,000 discs through his own WriteOn label. Morrow's rustic sound remains part singer/songwriter: poetic and acoustic at times. But it's equal parts country rock: accessible, hooky and rowdy in the tradition of outlaws like the Waylon Jennings and Willie Nelson.
