"Full Moon Saturday" Eddie Wilson (founder/owner of the legendary Armadillo World HQ) proclaimed Carolyn as "amazing & the best ever" ... and Eddie's seen all the best from the Armadillo days forward (like Janis Joplin, EmmyLou, Grace Slick, Sean Colvin, Marcia Ball, etc.). |
Carolyn Wonderland has the goods. A triple threat with her diverse songwriting, soulful vocals, and guitar goddess status. A bit of a renegade, she likes to incorporate elements of Blues, Country, Swing, Zydeco, Surf, Gospel, Soul, and some nights, maybe even a Cumbia into the musical mix. Recent years have seen her stretching out musically working some expert whistling and scat singing into her shows. In addition to her trusty guitar, "Patty," Carolyn has been regularly playing her trumpet, and even occasionally the accordion, mandolin, or keys...she is threatening to take up nose flute if someone doesn’t stop her...

2nd Annual Bruce's Birthday Bash (February 18th, 2005) Tourists and area residents gathered at the Marathon Motel courtyard Saturday evening for the second annual Barry’s Birthday Buffalo Bash. Over 200 people attended this years bash under clear skies to enjoy buffalo BBQ, live music and dancing. The purpose of the Buffalo Bash, which is free to the public, is to promote buffalo as a healthier, low fat alternative to beef, celebrate Barry Bruces’ birthday (a local rancher), and just a great excuse to have a party. Other dishes for this “Pot Luck” event were provided by area residents and businesses. Music, which was provided by the Charles Maxwell Band, was streamed live on the internet through the Basin Radio page, which can be found on Marathontexas.com. Special thanks go to the Bruce Ranch for providing the buffalo, Gordon Hughit, Javier Pinedo, the Marathon Motel, the Gage Hotel, Cottonwood Station, and numerous individuals for their efforts in making this event a huge success. Next years Buffalo Bash is tentatively scheduled for February 18th. |
