2011 The Fort Worth Weekly Music Awards
Fort Worth may never be a “music town” in the way that, say, Los Angeles, Austin, Nashville, Seattle, and New York City are, with multiple venues, several destination studios, a couple of big labels, and a lot of famous residents. But our lack of industry infrastructure hasn’t seemed to hurt the quality of music being produced by our friends, family members, and neighbors in town, and when you take everything into consideration, quality music is really all that matters, right?
Quantity has begun to matter too. As recently as about five years ago, you could count on one hand the number of cool, progressive bands. Now you’d have to take off your shoes to keep track. What explains the surge in talent? Technology? Sure, you can record an entire double-length album on your home computer, but you still have to play shows. You still have to be a band to make that time spent on your computer worthwhile. Maybe increased visibility is the key. There are now more media outlets than ever in North Texas and, with the relatively recent arrival of KXT/91.7-FM, more opportunities for local bands to receive always-sought-after airplay. But seeing your name in the paper or hearing one of your songs on the radio is a fleeting treat, not nearly enough to sustain the hard work required to be a band.A more likely answer may have to do with the old saw “It must be something in the water.”
What’s in there is not some secret ingredient but seemingly limitless inspiration. The quality has begun to snowball. From the influence of such veterans as Calhoun, Burning Hotels, Magnus, Scott Copeland, The Orbans, Stella Rose, and KatsüK have come upstarts such as Phantom Caste, Secret Ghost Champion, 1945, Skeleton Coast, The Hanna Barbarians, Quaker City Night Hawks, and The Hendersons, who all, in turn, are influencing yet another generation of rockers, twangers, rappers, and mods –– if you’ve been to an all-ages show recently, you know that the number of fans is often double that of some venues’ biggest 21-and-up shows.
And the veterans continue pushing one another. Yes, there may be some backstabbing, and yes, there may be some less-than-amicable breakups. But there doesn’t seem to be any real animosity among artists toward one another here. Fact is that most of the people who go to local shows regularly are in bands themselves.
