Justin Trevino with Full Band FREE ENTRY. Families welcome.
In the early 90s, while continuing to perform with his own band, Justin also played bass for Don Walser, Cornell Hurd and, later, also with Darrell McCall. In 1994, while still continuing to do shows on his own and with the other bands, Justin began a nine-year run as a “Bandolero” in Johnny Bush’s band. He played bass and sang harmony throughout the nine years; but nearly from the beginning, he also opened the shows with 45 minutes as lead vocalist before Johnny came on stage.
In Texas Country music circles, it’s a huge source of pride for musicians to be able to say they’ve been a Bandolero. They all have their reasons. For Justin, though, it wasn’t just about the thrill of playing with a Texas legend who was also his idol, mentor and good friend.
Johnny Bush wasn’t Justin’s only musical benefactor. Although he sometimes sat in on bass for Don Walser, Trevino was never an official member of Don’s band. Nonetheless, Walser took Trevino under his wing. He prompted Justin to record a demo so he could pitch it to his new label. Walser’s band helped with the recording. Walser’s record label didn’t pick up Trevino’s recordings, but Justin released the album himself two years later, in 1998. The title track from that album, “Texas Honky Tonk,” is still considered by many to be his signature song…and it is certainly one of the most requested at Justin’s performances. Since releasing Texas Honky Tonk in 1998, Justin has recorded and produced 13 more albums.
As if singing, songwriting and playing bass weren’t enough to feed Justin’s all-consuming passion for true Country music, in 1997, he began recording in his home studio in Martindale, Texas. After having two of his own albums under his belt, he began recording and producing for other artists who were interested in making traditional Country records. It wasn’t long before his friend, Tracy Pitcox, approached Justin about engineering and producing albums for Pitcox’s newly formed record label, Heart of Texas Records. Although Tracy and the artists on his label are still chief clients for Justin, he also engineers and produces albums for quality traditional Country musicians who are independent or on other labels. Justin runs his recording and production business from a building constructed on the Heart of Texas Music Association campus in Brady, Texas.
