Mike Hurwitz covers lots of territory in August

Wyoming Arts Council roster artist Michael Hurwitz is having a busy August. Yesterday he was on KUWR's "Morning Music" with Grady Kirkpatrick. He played songs from his latest CD, "Cowboy Fandango." They included "Tom Horn," about the legendary hired gun, and "Garden Spot Pavillion," the now-defunct venue in Medicine Bow that used to be a stop for country-western greats such as Bob Wills and the Texas Playboys, Ernest Tubb, and Patsy Cline. Listen to MP3 clips of some of these songs by going to http://www.mikehurwitz.com/.
