DARRYL WORLEY

The rich, reedy tones and all-American, blue-collar themes in his #1 hits “I Miss My Friend,” “Awful, Beautiful Life” and “Have You Forgotten?” are reminders of the down-to-Earth, Haggard-like Darryl Worley you always knew. The island vibes and blue-eyed soul in new songs “It’s Good To Be Me,” “Lay It On Me” and “Lonely Alone” suggest there’s another, almost-funky, version of Worley that’s been kept under wraps.

Born and raised in southern Tennessee by a Methodist minister and a church-choir mom he describes as a “prayer warrior,” Worley started his musical career at the FAME Studio in Muscle Shoals, under the tutelage of producer/publisher Rick Hall (Mac Davis, Jerry Reed), where he remained for a solid five years. He played clubs almost nightly, honing his stage craft at the same time he was woodshedding his songwriting skills, and as Worley gained confidence, he found his way to Nashville. There, he secured a recording deal in 1999 on the basis of some demo recordings that showcased his authoritative vocals and his understanding of the hard-working country audience.

That key period in Worley’s career impacted his sense of community and the role that music can play in bolstering the mindset of his audience. He’s continued to perform for troops since that initial trip, going on more than 15 USO tours, sometimes losing money in the process to show his appreciation to his fellow patriots. Additionally, he established the Tennessee River Run, an annual multi-day event in Savannah, Tennessee, that brings in money for the Darryl Worley Cancer Treatment Center, a facility that offers assistance in a region that was previously unserved. He’s enlisted friends such as Ronnie Milsap, Tracy Lawrence, Lee Brice, Craig Morgan, Diamond Rio and Charlie Daniels to play the River Run through the years, typically raising more than $100,000 annually for local charities. The impact of the cancer center was underscored for Worley when his dad coaxed him to attend a cancer survivors event without telling Darryl what he was walking into.

Some Recent Radio singles include “Saved Me From Myself” and “CHECK” which is performing well on the Texas Charts and receiving play in 68 countries. Another single “Baptized By A Back Road” recently reached #6 on Texas Internet Radio and performed well on the Texas and Positive Country charts. It’s reached over 100k streams to date. His latest Christian release is “Light The Way Home”. He and the band deliver heartfelt performances whether it be an intimate acoustic show or throwing down on the big stage.

They have been featured at many festival events such as the Natchitoches Jazz and Christmas festivals, Boofest, Rambling on the Red, Red River Revel, Battle of the bands, and more. In 2016 Zebb was a top 20 finalist in the televised McDonalds Sound-off Competition and in 2017 he received honors at the Arklatex Music Awards for “Male Vocalist of the Year”, “Album of the Year”, “Entertainer of the Year”, and “Song of the Year”- (Song From The Heart). He took a brief period off from music to focus on family and education, but made a strong comeback in 2022 releasing 3 new singles. This trajectory continued through 2023-present as he’s released notable singles recently “Red Dirt Heart”, “Where Your Boots Are”,  and “Miles Run Out” which have been well received. “Miles Run Out” will be featured on a 4-song EP with release date announced soon. Tracks will include songs from the vault that Zebb is a writer on. This EP is to celebrate turning 40 this year and some songs about life to go along with it. The final tune Only the Blood is a Christian song about the blood of Jesus covering our sins and life when time runs out.

LUCAS JAGNEAUX AND THE ROAD SHOW

Lucas Jagneaux & The Roadshow. The name’s pronounced Jag-no. Emerging from the woods of Northwest Louisiana, these boys have something to say and won’t stop till you hear it. And when you hear it, you’ll understand.

Lucas was as young as 3 when he began his entertainment career. At family gatherings, story has it that he used his great grandmother’s walking cane, as a microphone. He and younger brother Tobin were enveloped in family-style picking, singing and an all around love for country music. The deep family roots and love for music, ultimately bled over into their adult lives as they formed a band of their own in 2011. Joined by lifelong friend, Bates Bell on the Bass Guitar, who comes from an equally talented and rich musical stock, and Waylon Salter on the Pedal Steel— a mutual friend and multi instrumentalist with a resumé a mile long— the band crafted and honed a wall of sound, untouched by other four piece bands.

Even though they hail from the bayou state, Lucas was named 2019’s Texas Music Picker’s Songwriter winner. Immediately following, they dropped their lead off single, “New School” that was featured on Spotify’s Texas Music Now, where it amassed over 400K streams. Following the single were songs like “Broken Bow” — a comically true story of underage drinking gone wrong, you can feel the heartbreak in “Falls Like Rain”, and their single “The Worst Thing About Texas” is sure to pull your heart strings and make you love being from Texas, even if you’re not.

The Roadshow recently dropped their newest project, the “Honky Tonk Heart EP”. Saturated with pedal steel guitar, fiddle and some one line melodies on a telecaster— it’s everything you loved about old country music, repackaged for the modern listener.

You can follow Lucas and The Roadshow on all social platforms. But be on the lookout for the cloud of dust rolling through your town. Welcome to the sheaux.
