The Neon Eon: 004 Porter Howell of Little Texas
Welcome back to The Neon Eon. On Episode 004, we're joined by Porter Howell of Little Texas. Howell was one of the founding members of the '90s country outfit starting out as the outfit's lead guitarist and one of their chief songwriters. During this episode, we talk about moving from Texas to Nashville, attending Belmont University during the '80s, how their label pushed them to write early on, the band's dynamics and chemistry as performers & songwriters, and some of the stories behind some of their biggest hits like "What Might Have Been," "God Bless Texas," and "Some Guys Have All the Fun."
