ABOUT JD MYERS & LEGACY
“Former Asylum artist Myers is going the indie route with a collection that is straight up the Americana alley. Its title tune is a rootsy country rocker with deep-twang guitar, wailing harmonica, and a pounding backbeat. Heartily recommended.” – Robert K. Oermann
July 9 – July 11
ABOUT NILES CITY:
Niles City, three miles north of the business center of Fort Worth in central Tarrant County, was incorporated in February 1911. The town was called “the richest little city in the state of Texas” because of the high value of several corporations within its boundaries. It was named in honor of Louville Veranus Niles of Boston, Massachusetts, a large stockholder in the Fort Worth Stock Yards Company; Niles was given credit for the fact that the Swift and Armour packing companies located their plants in the vicinity. The Fort Worth Stockyards, including the Live Stock Exchange Building and the packing plants, all located within the Niles City corporate limits, were valued at over $12 million in 1911. Because of these historic facts, the band decided on the name to reflect a wealth of musical richness and diversity and to commemorate an area in Texas steeped in country music tradition.

ABOUT KRIS GORDON:
Kris Gordon was born to sing country music. It’s found in his West Texas Panhandle origins and his family musical legacy. You can hear it in his voice and his way with a song and witness it in his seasoned ability to get crowds dancing at every dancehall, club, and honky-tonk he plays. It’s also heard throughout the 10 songs on Gordon’s freshman debut album, DON’T LET GO TONIGHT. It strikes a canny balance between the best of the time-honored Nashville sound and the Texas Country spirit. Gordon sings of joys, sorrows, mysteries, and passions on emotive numbers with a romantic tick or rocking kick. His sophomore self entitled EP brought that Austin honky-tonk sound to a new level with hit songs like “Triple on the Double” and “Gets Me Everytime”. With the first single and video “The Upside of Down” leading the charge, Gordon delivers an assured and winning collection of rooted contemporary country that’s right on time and on par to tackle the Texas scene and well beyond, to wow fans in a much wider audience.
Billy Bob's welcomes visitors from all over the world and from all walks of life on a daily basis.
Come experience our Honky Tonk attitude, friendly Fort Worth hospitality, and truly unique atmosphere.
