When F. Scott Fitzgerald issued his classic conclusion that ‘There are no second acts in American lives,’ he failed to envision the career of legendary Texas troubadour Ray Wylie Hubbard. A willing conspirator in the late seventies Cosmic Cowboy revolt that ushered in the mythical Outlaw era, Hubbard was a catalyst in the cultural upheaval that led to the peaceful coexistence of Lone Star music enthusiasts who comprised each end of the social and political spectrum of that troubled time. In the stellar company of iconic colleagues like Willie Nelson, Waylon Jennings, Doug Sahm and Jerry Jeff Walker, Ray Wylie Hubbard was an architect of the musical legacy that continues to inspire subsequent generations of up-and-coming Texas talent.

From the fertile crescent of country music that gave us Loretta Lynn, Keith Whitley and Patty Loveless comes Luna, a singer/songwriter whose second album "Blaine Girl" continues the tradition of unapologetic Appalachian Roots music the Hillbilly Highway, U.S. Route 23, has long been known for. Luna makes a variety of styles uniquely her own. She is gifted with a voice steeped in Appalachian tradition but never afraid to let guitars drive the message. The Mountain Jets feature David Prince on lead guitar, Jeff Ware on bass and Jordan Ware on drums. This quartet from eastern Kentucky covers a lot of musical ground. They occupy the space between Lucinda Williams and Tom Petty with jangle riffs and acoustic driven stories of rural life. But that is only one side of the equation. Luna morphs into Wanda Jackson and the Mountain Jets become Led Zeppelin for a Rockabilly rave-up. They pay homage to Fleetwood Mac but never stray far from the honesty of Gram Parsons. Luna’s sweet mountain voice is a constant reminder that this is pure music. The Mountain Jets are incredibly versatile and provide exactly what is needed for each song. A night with the band is a musical journey…dress appropriately.
