Where is that music coming from?
The Brazos Valley is home to a lot of great things: local food, lots of live music and friendly people. So where does the music come from? Let's take a look!
Music is coming to the Brazos Valley!
The Brazos Valley is a region in Texas containing 7 counties in Central Texas: Brazos, Burleson, and Robertson (which collectively comprise the Bryan–College Station metropolitan area), and the neighboring counties of Grimes, Leon, Madison, and Washington.[1] The largest cities in the region are Bryan, College Station, Brenham, Navasota, Hearne, Madisonville, and Caldwell.
It's also home to several fairs and markets including the Official State of Texas Bluebonnet Festival, The Annual Maifest German Heritage Festival, the Starlight Music Series all summer under the stars at the beautiful Wolf Pen Creek Amphitheater in College Station, TX, and Navasota is designated as the “Blues Capital of Texas” in honor of the Mance Lipscomp, who was a local Navasota native and amazing blues musician.
Red Room Underground will be bringing live music across this region so watch out for events over the next few months.
Get ready because the music is coming!
The Kaleidoscope Project
Where is the music coming from?
The Brazos Valley is a great place for live music because there are so many different kinds of bands playing all over town. One thing that makes us unique is our location--the Texas Triangle MegaRegion (or "TX Triangle" for short). This means we have access to more than just one type of sound or style; we have everything from country music to rock, alternative, and metal to rockabilly bands touring all year round.
