Little Texas

Little Texas is an act on the Starverb influence map. Their sound grew out of Eagles and Clint Black. Those roots explain a lot about how Little Texas arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as Mark Chesnutt, Sawyer Brown, John Michael Montgomery, Collin Raye and Aaron Tippin, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into Trace Adkins, Restless Heart and Travis Tritt, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation. Altogether the chart holds 29 connections around Little Texas, reaching back through Eagles and forward to Trace Adkins.
