Join Garrett T. Capps and the Trouble Country crew as we shuffle through the Suffering Jukebox. We've asked all kinds of folks, from outlaw icons to honky-tonk headbangers, to pick-a-tune and tell us what it means to them 🤠 

To kick things off, we've got the Rhinestone Revolutionary, the Troubadour of Trotskyism Lavender Country's Patrick Haggerty 🌈 

In 1973 Patrick and his collaborators released the first known gay-themed album in country music history. Needless to say, he's been turning over rocks and kicking open doors ever since. Simply put, Patrick is a living legend, and you better listen up and hear what he has to say.

This week we've got a pick from the rockabilly filly, Rosie Flores!

From the Cowpunk roots of her first real band, Rosie & the Screamers, to the influential all-female LA-based outfit the Screaming Sirens, not to mention her solo work in country, rockabilly, and the blues, Rosie has rocked her way through a righteous resume of killer work.

With an irresistible mischievous streak, Rosie, a diverse and sought-after guitar player, has been at the epicenter of more than a few exploding scenes: Cowpunk in LA and Rockabilly in Austin.

She’s worked with the Texas Tornadoes, Wanda Jackson, Asleep at the Wheel, and Janice Martin. All while keeping her style on the move. She’s so beloved in her hometown of Austin Texas at the city Council site fit to Deen August 31 Rosie Flores day🇨🇱

Time to take another spin around Trouble Country, and we’ve got the sonic psychogeographer, William Tyler, queuing up a country-fried psychedelic joy-ride into uncharted territory.

The son of storied national songwriters, William Tyler was raised in the bars and honky-tonks Music Row surrounded by some of the finest pickers, poets, and troubadours this side the Mason Dixon🪕

From an early age, his skillful musicianship has kept his name in lights around town, eventually earning him a seat as a guitarist in two of Music City’s most lauded in the X: Kurt Wagner‘s Lambchop and David Berman‘s Silver Jews. 

Lending his sound to countless artists, including Charlie Louvin, Bonnie Prince Billy, and the Muppets, William Tyler has successfully endeavored as a session Artist and his site for his modern interpretation of the American primitive guitar style. As a solo artist, he has released a series of guitar-based instrumental albums that invite a deep listening experience, transcending time but rooted in place.

So turn off your GPS, because where we’re going, you won’t need it🌀

You’ve waded on into Trouble Country again, a series of documentary podcasts that dives headlong into Americana music’s countercultural undercurrents, and today we’ve got Jesse Dayton to swim these murky waters right along with you🌊

A Trouble Country polymath from Beaumont Texas, a singer song-slinger and ace guitarist, and a filmmaker and author to boot Jesse’s got a decades-long resume of hard-ass country and rockabilly tunes that tells you all you need to know about his chops as a true student of the blues, old country, and punk rock.

The fact that he scored films for Rob Zombie🧟‍♂️and pick guitar for Waylon Jennings, Johnny Cash, and monumental punk outfit X, gives us even more reason to listen when the man speaks🎙

It all begins with an idea; with a person. As the long-serving Curator of Education at the Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth, Terri Thornton has been programming the Tuesday Evenings at the Modern lecture series for nearly 30 years. Through this collection of interviews, Thornton discusses the influence of her personal biography on her pedagogy, how her art practice informs her attitudes towards museum education, and explains why it’s important for artists and the public to be in conversation through museum-based public programming like Tuesday Evenings at the Modern.
