TSHA Conference 2024

3 panelists — From L-R: Evaliza Fuentes, Rich Kelly, Avery Armstrong

In February of 2024, the Center for Texas Music History sponsored our annual panel at the Texas State Historical Association's Conference – this year, in College Station.

Below are our three panelists, their affiliations, and their presentation titles:

- Evaliza Fuentes, Texas Christian University. “Growing Up on Selena: Historicizing Thirty Years of Amor Prohibido”
- Rich Kelly, Austin Community College. “Robert Earl Keen and the Death and Rebirth of Texas Country Music”
- Avery Armstrong, Texas State University. “The Lost Gonzo Band and the Creation of the Live Music Capital of the World”

A great conversation was had with audience members after the presentations about historical memory, oral history, and music as a cultural connector between generations.
