"Texas Creek Band"
Ken West & D.C. Cloninger

Ken West has been playing country and western swing music for over 50 years. He's been a member of our Gatesville Country Music Hall of Fame since July of 2014 and a member of our house band even longer. Ken travels around Texas playing the acoustic guitar and singing classic country music. He often travels to Colorado to perform.


D.C. Cloninger is simply a great fiddle player. He has played country and western swing music for over 30 years. He and Ken play mostly as a duo, but sometimes they add other musicians to the band, depending on the venue. D.C. is a great fiddler and singer.


Ken asked two additional players to play with them on this show. Marty Filandro who lives in Clifton, TX and serves in the music ministry and as a  Lay Pastor at the Bosque County Cowboy Church in Clifton. He started playing the bass at age 14 and paid for lessons by delivering Sunday newspapers and mowing yards. At age 23, he joined the US Navy and served 13 years where he formed and played in bands with friends. His band once opened for Aron Tippin and Faith Hill in 1996.


Lisa Paschal has played the drums for quite some time and plays at the Bosque County Cowboy Church in Clifton, TX.

"Elderly Brothers"

Not our usual country music show because the Elderly Brothers Band plays Rock-N-Roll music from the 1950s and 1960s. The band was composed of Robbis Storm, Pete Henniger, Clark Corbin, and brothers Trent Lancaster and Zane Lancaster. All are from the Lampasas area. They brought back memories of the past if you are old enough to remember those days. Even if our audience didn’t live through the 50s and 60s, I’m sure the audience enjoyed what this band called finger-popping, toe-tapping music. I saw a lot of head shaking, hand clapping, and dancing in the aisle to keep in time with the music.

Awards:
1. Each member of the Elderly Brothers Band received a Gatesville Country Music Hall of Fame, Honorary Membership Framed Certificate
2. The Elderly Brothers Band received a Gatesville Country Music Hall of Fame Honorary Membership Trophy

Again, thanks to the GCM Hall of Fame house band and our technical staff for their part in producing the show. Our band members were Louie Lee (lead guitar), Roger Vierse (MC/guitar), George Allison (acoustic guitar/vocals), John Nickell (rhythm guitar/vocals, staff photographer), Ken West (acoustic guitar/vocals) Mike Prosser (drums), Tom Williamson (bass guitar), Carol Hollingsworth (guitar), Ann Easley (keyboard), and Lynn Webb (sound technician).
