A story of stories told for the abilene music scene from the last two decades
“What you’re about to read is a gift, a tapestry of stories and chain of events masterfully woven together to create a time machine for you to go back in time to all of those local Abilene shows you may or may not have been to the last two decades. These are the people and the highlights that helped sustain the Abilene music scene that went on to produce a web of musical artists that have gone beyond our small town borders headlining major stages, making musical careers, some reaching a million streams on Spotify. From those early connections through MySpace trickling all the way down to the ones that entered the era of Shazam, this historic portrait is one told through hrs of interviews and passion-driven story telling by that of Ryan Silva, Abilene native now LA-based music recording /producing artist (among many other creative endeavors). Thank you for waiting patiently to contact and collect all the pieces that take us behind the scenes, down to the very thoughts of these different Creatives that helped drive the various overlapping music scenes here in Abilene. On behalf all of those who passionately rode the waves, thank you for telling our story.” - APPP
