226: Ashton Naylor, Cameron Allbright, & Hank Weaver
On Episode 226, I'm joined by a trio of up and coming Texas songwriters--Ashton Naylor, Cameron Allbright, and Hank Weaver. The three have been making waves down around San Marcos the past couple of years, having ushered in a new class of Texas artists from the hotspot. During this episode, we talk about Songwriter Nights across the state, the latest and upcoming projects, and what it's like to be a new artist in 2025.
