A weekly show featuring the Top Texas Red Dirt songs packin' the dancefloors
It seems like many bands these days aim to embody a rural, down-to-earth spirit, even if they haven't lived it. Jared Deck, however, grew up in a small town in Oklahoma with a population of 1,200. He spent his early years trying to start a business, playing piano in a gospel church, and dreaming of leaving his hometown. When he attempted to leave at 21, he only made it 17 miles before a flat tire forced him to return, inspiring the song 17 Miles. Like the rest of his self-titled debut, it deals not in some imagined, idealized version of fly-over country, but in the real life that lingers in towns much smaller than the dreams they contain. Jared is a storyteller who hopes to share his experiences growing up listening to music one way in his youth, and after growing older and having kids, he hears those same songs from a different perspective. His newest release is a remake of another Oklahoma native who took this song to number 1 in 1990 only this time puts a different spin on it with his powerful Honky Tonk Soul Vibrato as he tells his story of Two of a Kind
