SUMMARY:Music on Main Featuring Booker T. Jones
DESCRIPTION:Music on Main 2026 Featuring Booker T. Jones\nMusic on Main is our free summer concert series held each year in downtown Denison! Bring your lawn chairs\, blankets and family for this family friendly series! The evening begins with a Facebook live broadcast of Music Alley Happy Hour at 6:30 p.m. on Downtown Denison TX. Dine in\, carry out\, or order delivery from your favorite downtown eatery on your way to the concert. Local business vendors will be attending on site. The concert begins at 7:30 p.m. and will be held at Forest Park located at 300 W. Crawford. \nFrom an early age\, Booker T. Jones—“one of the legends of soul music” (The New Yorker)—was captivated by the magic of melody\, rhythm\, and harmony. So magnetic was the attraction\, in fact\, that by the time he turned sixteen\, he was\, incredibly\, already a working musician with a hit song to his name. \nAs part of the first house band for Stax Records\, he formed the category-defining group Booker T. & the MGs\, whose first recording\, “Green Onions\,” was an international sensation\, selling more than one million copies and winning a place among Rolling Stone’s top five hundred songs of all time. Not stopping there\, Jones continued to push soul music’s boundaries\, refining it to its essence and then injecting it into the nation’s bloodstream. Nearly five decades after he first made his entrance onto the scene\, Jones paved the way for modern soul music and is largely responsible for the genre’s rise and enduring popularity. \nFrom midcentury Memphis\, where the brutality of segregation was a stark backdrop to the loving\, supportive family and community in which he was raised\, to the creative hotbed of Beale Street\, the Harlem of the South; from his early friendship with figures such as Maurice White (who went on to form Earth\, Wind\, and Fire) to the complicated dynamics of the racially mixed MGs—Jones not only was a witness to revolutions but also wrote their soundtracks. His musical legacy includes enduring compositions such as “Time Is Tight\,” “Hip Hug-Her\,” and the often sampled “Melting Pot” and collaborations with the likes of Otis Redding\, Wilson Pickett\, and Sam and Dave—and later Neil Young\, Bob Dylan\, Barbra Streisand\, Carlos Santana\, and Willie Nelson. \nYears in the making\, this unforgettable personal journey is so much more than just a musician’s tale. Indeed\, Time Is Tight is both the definitive account of one of modern music’s most influential eras and also a necessary addition to the canon of literature about American music.\nBooker T. Jones is an American multi-instrumentalist\, songwriter\, record producer\, and arranger. Best known as the front man of the band Booker T. & the MGs\, he has worked with countless award-winning artists of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries and has earned a Grammy Award for Lifetime Achievement. Along with the band\, he was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1992. Jones continues to record and tour internationally\, both as a solo artist and as head of Booker T.’s Stax Revue. \nhttps://bookert.com/ \n

SUMMARY:Music on Main Featuring Junior Brown
DESCRIPTION:Music on Main 2026 Featuring Junior Brown\nMusic on Main is our free summer concert series held each year in downtown Denison! Bring your lawn chairs\, blankets and family for this family friendly series! The evening begins with a Facebook live broadcast of Music Alley Happy Hour at 6:30 p.m. on Downtown Denison TX. Dine in\, carry out\, or order delivery from your favorite downtown eatery on your way to the concert. Local business vendors will be attending on site. The concert begins at 7:30 p.m. and will be held at Forest Park located at 300 W. Crawford. \nWith his unique voice\, more unique song writing\, and even more unique double necked “Guit-Steel” guitar\, there has absolutely never been ANYONE like Junior Brown. He’s the American Original. Born in 1952 in Cottonwood\, Arizona\, Junior Brown showed an affinity for music at an early age when the family moved to a rural area of Indiana near Kirksville. In the following years\, Junior began to experience Country music and remembers it as “growing up out of the ground like the crops-it was everywhere; coming out of cars\, houses\, gas stations and stores like the soundtrack of a story\, but Country music programs on TV hadn’t really come along much yet; not until the late fifties.” Discovering a guitar in his grandparent’s attic\, he spent the next several years woodshedding with records and the radio. Junior was also able to tap into music he couldn’t hear at home which older\, college aged kids were listening to. This was possible due to his father’s employment at small campuses throughout the next decade as the family moved twice again. As a young boy he was able to experience the thrill of performing before live audiences\, at parties\, school functions even singing and playing guitar for five thousand Boy Scouts at an Andrews Air Force Base jamboree; then while still a teenager\, getting the chance to sit in with Rock and Roll pioneer\, Bo Diddley. Armed with this broad spectrum of influences\, he began to develop a storehouse of musical chops. Early on\, Junior realized he had to keep his interest in Country music a secret; “it was like a secret friend I carried around\, being careful not to tell anyone (especially girls) about my love for it because I thought they would laugh at me.” It wasn’t until the late 1960’s that Junior Brown would proudly explore the passion for the music he had loved since his early childhood in Indiana. With many prominent figures as his inspiration (Country legends\, some who he would work with years later)\, he spent his nights in small clubs across the southwest. “I played more nights in honkytonks during the Seventies and Eighties than most musicians will see in a lifetime… I did so many years of that\, night after night\, four sets a night\, fifteen-minute breaks; I mean after that\, you’ve gotta get good or you gotta get out. The early 1970’s California Country dance club scene was particularly competitive\, but I learned professionalism and stage demeanor which has served me well to this day. “More recently however\, Junior has shown himself to be equally adept at a wide variety of American music styles beyond Country. These include Rock and Roll\, Blues\, Hawaiian\, Bluegrass and Western Swing. There is a dependable consistency in Junior’s writing style (he writes nearly all his material) yet he’s always full of pleasant surprises. Though Junior always knew he could sing and play what he wanted\, he had yet to explore his potential as a songwriter. “I realized no one was going to walk into a club and discover me…so I started hanging out with some songwriters who I’d played some jobs with\, and they showed me how to support myself by writing and publishing.” With his writing coming together by the mid-Eighties\, Brown upgraded his gear in a way that no artist had ever done. Struggling through each show\, going back and forth plugging and unplugging guitar to steel guitar while singing\, he had a dream one night about the two instruments mysteriously melding into one. The result was Brown’s unique invention\, the “Guit-Steel”\, a double necked instrument combining standard guitar with steel guitar. Built by Michael Stevens of Stevens Electric Instruments\, the Guit-Steel allows Junior to switch instruments quickly in mid song while singing. According to Brown\, his guitar and steel guitar playing became more his own around this time\, with less imitation of others and more his own original ideas and licks. This maturation coincided with the development of a completely “Junior Brown” style of songwriting which employs subtle dry wit to some songs-other scan be more overtly humorous\, or just plain dead serious; like his playing\, there is a wide range of styles that when combined can only spell Junior Brown. In the early nineties Brow and his band (including wife Tanya Rae) relocated to Texas to the active Austin music scene and landed a weekly gig at the Continental club. Having worked as a sideman for many of the Austin-based acts over the years\, Junior was already well familiar with the town. His unique and entertaining combination of singing\, songwriting\, instrumental and production skills led to a seven record deal with Curb Records that began with “Twelve Shades of Brown” in1993. He later released two albums on the Tel Arc label. There were several Grammy nods\, a CMA (Country Music Association) award for “My Wife Thinks You’re Dead”\, move and repeated TV appearances like Letterman\, Conan\, Saturday Night Live\, Austin City Limits\, SpongeBob\, X Files\, Dukes of Hazzard\, Me Myself and Irene\, Tress pass\, Still Breathing\, Blue Colla Comedy Tour 1 and 2\, and more recently\, Better Call Saul. And there were the Ad Campaigns; The Gap\, Lee Jeans and Lipton Tea. As Junior became more well known\, he began to collaborate on projects with some of his heroes. These include a duet with Ralph Stanley for which Junior received a Bluegrass Music Association Award (IBMA)\, a duet and video with Hank Thompson\, as well as duets with video and record collaborations with the Beach Boys\, George Jones\, Leon McAuliffe\, Ray Price\, Leona Williams\, Lynn Morris\, Lynn Morris\, Lloyd Green and Doc Watson. He even played guitar for Bob Wills’ Texas Playboys in a radio commercial. Junior is currently finishing up recording on his latest album\, “The American Original”. Release date is slated for mid-summer 2016. Junior’s performance on the promotional song\, “Better Call Saul” was recorded and released both as a video on AMC as well as a flexible 33 1/3rd vinyl record included in the show’s box set from Season One. Junior\, Tanya Rae and the band continue to tear up the highways and no doubt will be appearing in concert near you one of these days. Seeing Junior live is a definite must\, so GUIT WITH IT ’cause he’s THE AMERICAN ORIGINAL! \nhttps://www.juniorbrown.com/

Described by Billboard as “the future of country music\,” the 56X-Platinum singer-songwriter has racked up a daunting array of accolades and awards since his 2016 self-titled debut. He was named to the TIME 100 list in 2021\, and in 2023 became the first Black artist to headline and sell out Boston’s historic Fenway Park. He’s received multiple nods including the coveted Entertainer of the Year award at the ACMs as well as multiple wins and nominations at the Billboard Music Awards\, American Music Awards\, CMT Music Awards\, and People’s Country Choice Awards. \nBy the end\, you don’t need to have traversed the globe to relate to all the different stops on The High Road. Across 18 songs\, Brown gets at all the shades of waning youth and those murky not-quite-old years\, growing up right alongside the fans who’ve been with him since the mid-’10s. It’s the most honest\, multi-faceted work from Brown yet\, building on everything he’s done before and leaving the door open for just about anything in the future. “This is me\, this is Kane Brown\,” he concludes. “This is the artist I am.” \n
