"Country music is storytelling. You get a sense of where people are coming from and where their families have been; country music specifically is American storytelling." ―Kiefer Sutherland

Texas Music Revolution follows the journey of indie radio station KHYI-FM GM and music festival founder Joshua Jones as he produces the silver anniversary of this iconic event. As much a document of reintroducing live music in the wake of a pandemic, it is a celebration of Texas and its roots – where, at the crossroads of purist country and Americana, has evolved the iconic "red dirt" Waylon-and-Willie style considered one of three pillars of American country music. For more than a quarter of a century, KHYI-FM's commitment to radio independence has given voice to this unique sector of the country western genre. TMR has subsequently emerged as an iconic live showcase and grown into one of the largest independent music festivals in the USA. In a volatile era where larger festivals have shuttered, Joshua and KHYI must double down to produce their grandest event yet.
