MARK MCKINNEY’S HOME

Mark McKinney has started on their 3rd record which they are tentatively calling Home. 



A little birdy told me that some of the song titles are "The Truth," "I'm Golden," "Shotguns on Whiskey" and "Warm With You."



Another cool aspect of the recording is that they have been recording with Mark’s road band the "Cosmic Cowboys" in Austin, hence the theme of "Home." 



MAX’S NEW ALBUM!

Max Stalling’s new CD Home to You is set to be released on August 17! Check out the cool review from Justin Frazell in our current issue of Best in Texas Music Magazine. Go to www.BestinTexasOnline.com to check it out!
