Opie Hendrix: Opie's America

Opie Hendrix goes to AUSTIN (but returns home just in time) - February 11, 2008

Hey Kids!
Wanna say thanks for all the love and good vibes and just plain old fashioned "showing up on time." It seems to be pouring in from EVERYWHERE lately...even from far away places such as Hawaii. That's right ALOHA, friends. Turns out there is a little radio station on the islands that has put Opie Hendrix in regular rotation. With SXSW and THUNDER WEEKEND over Louisville, KY being on the horizon, Mama's debut CD drops THIS SATURDAY, www.myspace.com/opiehendrixandthetexastallboys got a "face lift" (also check out the PAT SULLIVAN tribute page) and, if wow was ever the right word, we just opened up our NEW sound studio...but wait there's more...

Home again... - November 28, 2007

Hey Kids!

Opie Hendrix is back from an amazingly wonderful road trip. Thanksgiving dinner was splendid. Thanks, Mom & Dad! We now have an Official Opie Hendrix HQ in Indianapolis, Indiana. We had such a good time @ the Tip Top Tavern located in beautiful downtown Indy, that we've booked dates at the venue through the rest of next year. Thank you, Larry Ann, Carrie Ann & A.J.! Back @ Louisville HQ...our friends @ the Third Base Tavern got a good dose of Opie's "brand new" stomp box, wild mic-stand slide mandolin riffs and an oh, so rare drum duet. Minds and speakers were blown that night. Thank you Rick, Lip & Keith! We'll see all of you in April...
