Mix Tape: Heartbreak Hayride
Country tunes have gotten me through the week, and the timing seems perfect: is there anything more American than a broken heart set to steel guitar? This would make a good soundtrack for backyard barbecues, a game of horseshoes, and a bottle of beer. But perhaps best of all: sitting on the porch at night surrounded by fireflies.
Betsy: You must be pining for Texas! And you have transported me further back to my own youth on the ranch in Colorado where Dale Evans personified the perfect cowgirl (and lady).46 weeks ago
Arwen: That vintage cowgirl is, I’m fairly sure, Miss Dale Evans. I loved her. Happy sigh! Thank you.

Katy from DiningwithDusty: I love this! I was driving through Kentucky and Tennessee about two weeks ago and country music was the soundtrack to my journey. It gave me a whole new appreciation for the genre!46 weeks ago
Heather Grilliot: I always look forward to your mix tapes. Being from the deep south…Texas that is, country music is kinda cliche. But I love this mix of yours. I often come and listen to your tapes over and over. I’ve learned of some new artist through you! Thanks Sarah46 weeks ago
