The Royal Theater

Houston Marchman Live at the Royal Theater


Back in 2015, independent music stalwart Houston Marchman decided to record a live release at the historic Royal Theater in Archer City, TX. The venue was a familiar one, and the staff and management were totally on board with the planned endeavor, so the planning and rehearsals finally led up to this set of songs from that performance on June 27, 2015.

The recordings had some technical issues, equipment malfunctions, and weren't really up to the standard Houston had hoped for, so they were relegated to the 'bit bucket' for several years. Now that most of us musicians are finding quite a bit more time for other musical endeavors, it seemed like a good time to unarchive these recordings and see what nuggets might be found. It turns out that they aren't perfect, recorded as you hear them, however there is some enjoyable music here that Houston has decided to let me share.

These are songs familiar to most of Houston's fans, but each has it's own personaility live, and we think you'll enjoy them. The band on this record:

Houston Marchman - lead vocals and guitar
John Fannin - electric guitar and background vocals
Bob Cullen - bass guitar
Terry Kirkendall - drums
Bill Terry - steel guitar


Thanks for listening and supporting independent music!
