The 2014 Jane Long Festival folks are thrilled to announce that famed Texas singer/songwriter Brian Burns will headline the entertainment array at Fifth Annual fete at Oct. 11 at Fort Travis Seashore Park on Bolivar Peninsula. Brian will share the stage with Bolivar’s own, Three Way Switch from High Island.
Undoubtedly in his well-known repetoire will be his very popular “I’ve Been Everywhere (In Texas).” Brian’s uniquely Texas sound puts a musical slant on all things “Lone Star” with wit, warmth and a style that prompted legendary artists to record his songs.
A native of Arlington, TX, Brian is as popular with school children as he is with adults. His “Once Upon a Time in Texas” has become the state’s premier K-12 Social Studies curriculum enhancement, ranking as Texas’ #1 school assembly program.
His place in Texas musical history is already insured with one-man-one-guitar tours de force like “Border Radio” album (winner of the XM Satellite Radio’s “Best In Texas” award) and “American Junkyard,” which skillfully continues his unique sound while adding great humor and insight as he looks through the eyes of an aging patriot at the nation today.
Brian, along with the Three Way Switch band, will perform during the 5th Annual Jane Long Festival’s daylong entertainment schedule, which will also feature the return of the popular, updated “Pirates and Petticoats” play about Jane Long, Jean Lafitte, Sam Houston and other Texas notables.
