💔 HEARTFELT TRIBUTE SONG FOR TOMMY ALVERSON‼️🙏

After the Big Benefit for Texas Music Legend Tommy Alverson who just passed yesterday, Deryl Dodd and 14 artists have united to craft a heartfelt tribute to our hero, according to Red Dirt Proud’s JB Cloud. Drawing from Tommy’s iconic lyrics and titles, they created a song honoring the legend. Set to release this coming week, it’s a powerful salute to the man who inspired so many.

🚨 UPDATE FROM MIKE MANCY: TOMMY ALVERSON FANS..... I'll try hard to make this as short as possible. In honor of our friend Tommy, we have been working on this song for a while now. All of the details are on the link below. PLEASE go to the link and donate money to download. 100% of the money goes directly to the Alverson family! Thank you to the artists/musicians/radio stations, etc, who helped make this possible! Especially thank you to Tommy Alverson! Without your music this song couldn't be made. We love you!

MAY T.A. LIVE ON FOREVER!

Wade Bowen recently spent the day with the Texas Army National Guard in Eagle Pass, TX, where he experienced an airboat ride on the Rio Grande River and got a firsthand look at the work of those who help protect our borders.

When asked if he was worried, he replied, "No, I think we've got good protection. If anything happens, I think we have badasses all around."
