Free Download of "Short-Skirt Blues" Live from The Rutledge!
Not a day goes by that we don’t hear great feedback about the CD Release Show for Shannon Cain’s album, Like I Never Fell Down. That show was followed by Shannon being selected as Radio Free Texas Artist of the Month for February, along with an invite to headline shows at Cadillac Ranch for CRS Week. We’re grateful for all the support, encouragement, and hard work from those who are committed to getting Shannon Cain's music heard. And everday, it seems that goal is getting closer, thanks to you.
Because we owe you so much, we felt it would be good to give something back: FREE MUSIC!! We’ve got a great live recording of Shannon’s regular show closer, “Short-Skirt Blues”, that we’re making available for digital download on the music page of this website and on MySpace. All we ask is that you tell folks about it, add it to your myspace profile, leave a comment on the myspace page, or just spread the word about the music. More than anything, we want you to enjoy it.
Thanks for all the help, and we hope to see you at the CRS shows!

Shannon Cain is Radio Free Texas' Artist of the Month!
We're very pleased to announce that Radio Free Texas has asked Shannon Cain to be their All Access Artist of the Month for February.
Many of you are familiar with RFT but, for those of you who haven't discovered the site, please visit radiofreetexas.org or find them in Shannon's top friends on the Shannon Cain Music myspace page. These great folks are committed to promoting Texas/Red Dirt music around the world and they've done Shannon a tremendous honor by championing his new CD, LIKE I NEVER FELL DOWN.
For those of you who love TXRD music, you can listen for free or you can step up and support "music that matters" by subscribing at one of the monthly rates offered; those who subscribe to their top tier--ALL ACCESS--will get a free CD from a Texas Music artist each subsequent month of their subscription. It's a heck of a deal, friends.
Also, RFT is nominated for a Texas Music Award. We hope you'll take time to cast your vote. They're no stranger to TMA's (they've been a winner) and we'd love to see their success continue.
Check out some of the exciting shows coming up, and additional photos by Tara Thompson from the CD Release show have been added:
