We have never seen the crowd react this way to a non-label act before.” The Oil Palace, Tyler, TX • “For those of us from Texas, the name Brian Black isn’t new. He’s been wowing audiences from El Paso to Nacogdoches and Abilene to Beeville for the past three years. There’s only one reason for his success, Brian Black is a dynamic entertainer with a distinctive pure country voice that attracts listeners and keeps them wanting more. He has definitely earned his popularity based on his ability to deliver what people want, and that’s good country music.” Linda Bowley, Texas Country Magazine A room full of Skybox Committeemen for the Houston Livestock Show & Rodeo went silent from Brian’s vocal delivery of “Today I Started Loving You Again”.
