"The Louis L'Amour of the Cowboy Singers"

 

That's what fans everywhere are calling this Gracemont, Oklahoma native. "A Cowboy...Born a Hundred Years Too Late" is the long awaited album dedicated to the cowboy way of life by one of America's premier songwriters.

 

Nominated for "Album of The Year" by the Academy of Western Artists, the 2000 release of “A Cowboy...Born A Hundred Years Too Late”, Terry's tribute to the American West, contained the song "Silver Spur", which won "Song of The Year", and is now being used as the storyline for a book and possibly a made for TV movie. Terry was also nominated for "Male Vocalist of The Year", "Rising Star" and won "Songwriter of The Year" honors.

 

Terry has the kind of voice that is perfectly suited for the storyteller role. Its depth and emotional quality make you believe the stories he sings and makes you want to hear them again and again.

 

Growing up on a ranch and being affiliated with rodeo through his wife, Trick and Fancy Roper and Cowgirl Hall of Fame nominee, Hilda Machado, Terry knows a little something about the cowboy spirit and has a deep respect for our cowboy roots.

There have been many artists who have helped preserve our western heritage through paintings, music, poetry, books and movies, but with an imagination as big as the Oklahoma sky, a guitar for a brush, and music as his canvas, few can paint a more beautiful or realistic picture of the cowboy and the west than Terry Brown.
