This week we heard new music out of Dallas from Elyse Jewel and husband and wife duo Hanging Fire. Fort Worth artists Cody Lynn Boyd and Brodie Price sent in new songs, and we heard Driveway Dive out of Plano. We even heard “Radio Girl” from Dallas artist Steve Dirkx– a song recorded in 1992 and inspired by former KERA DJ Liza Richardson.
You can see the entire playlist after this week’s highlights, and if you are an artist from North Texas, submit your music here.
