What I Like About Texas Gary P Nunn

So, you're curious about what makes Gary P. Nunn, the Texas troubadour, tick? Buckle up, 'cause we're about to dive into a fun-filled ride through the Lone Star State, one of Gary's favorite subjects.

Born and Bred

Gary was born in the heart of Texas, in the small town of Bandera. That's right, the "Cowboy Capital of the World". You can't get more Texan than that!

He's been singing about his home state for decades, and let me tell you, he's not one to shy away from its quirks. From the prickly pear cactus to the armadillo, Gary's got a song for every Texan creature, big or small.

Gary's Texas Trivia

Did you know? Gary's even written a song about the Texas state insect, the blind cave cricket. Yes, you read that right. Now, that's dedication!

Two-Stepping Through Texas

Gary's not just a singer; he's a two-stepping, line-dancing, boot-scooting machine. And where better to show off those moves than in Texas, the birthplace of country music?

He's played in dancehalls from Dallas to Del Rio, and he's not slowing down anytime soon. After all, as Gary says, "If you can't dance, you're in the wrong part of Texas!"

Gary's Dance Card

Gary's played at the legendary Gruene Hall, the oldest dance hall in Texas. That's a pretty impressive gig, if you ask me!

Texas Proud

Gary's not just proud to be a Texan; he's proud to sing about it. His song "London Homesick Blues" is a Texas classic, a tale of a Texan longing for home while in London.

And let's not forget "What I Like About Texas". This song is a love letter to the Lone Star State, from the "bluebonnets in the spring" to the "barbecue and the beer". It's a Texas anthem, plain and simple.
