Influences
I was introduced to music when I would attend family reunions at our ranch outside of Laredo. As I grew older my cousins and I would wait our turn to play guitar and sing after my Dad and Uncles took a break. My Dad (Geronimo Trevino Jr.), Ray Price, Roger Miller and Willie Nelson are the main reasons I come home after 2am on weekends.
Dance Halls and Last Calls:
A History of Texas Country Music
Documentaries of over one hundred vintage dance halls are explored through the eyes of artists who performed in Texas towns that once overflowed with people flocking to see their favorite country bands and to dance. Never before seen photographs from private collectors are included.
A Collection of Dance Hall Classics available on CD
This CD Compilation is representative of the artists and Musicians who made their mark playing the Texas Dance Hall Circuit. The Project was organized by the New Braunfels Museum of Art & Music in conjunction with Geronimo Trevino III whose book, "Dance Halls and Last Calls," provided both the inspiration and the historical research necessary to bring the project to fruition. A wonderful collection of legendary artists like Lefty Frizzell, Johnny Cash, Bob Wills and Floyd Tillman and a newer generation of Texas artists like Pat Green and Pauline Reese provide the signposts for a unique musical journey through the dance halls of Texas; a timeless adventure that makes you feel like you're standing on a sawdust dance floor, eagerly waiting for the next song to begin.
Geronimo was born in Laredo, Texas and graduated from Texas A & M University with a degree in physical education. He decided to not pursue a career in coaching in order to concentrate more on music. He first was exposed to music listening to his dad and uncles sing at family gatherings at their ranch in south Texas. These influences were instrumental in his producing a tribute album titled Conjunto con Padres that was released in 1999. The album made the first entry level for best Tejano album in the 43rd Grammy Awards.
Geronimo and his band have opened shows for country music legends Ray Price, Willie Nelson and Ronnie Milsap in addition to other fine Texas artists such as Augie Meyers, Ray Wylie Hubbard, Flaco Jimenez, Robert Earl Keen and Gary P. Nunn. His band was the first to play The Alamodome in San Antonio, Texas. He has been a consultant for National Public Radio on a feature about Texas Dance Halls and is a board member for the New Braunfels Museum of Art that will focus on preserving Texas music. With his publishing company, recordings, live performances and a book on Texas Dance Halls, he remains an active participant in the music industry.

This specially compiled 4 CD Box Set from Time Life features the best Folk Rock songs from the ’60s, ’70s, ’80s and ’90s! Includes 71 Songs That Defined An Era and Influenced Generations... In Stores September 11
Not just another genre, folk rock was born as a statement—of purpose, of taste, of superiority—the baby boom’s first imprimatur, a musical mission and a personal battle cry in a divisive time of racial tension and escalating war. For a generation of philosopher dropouts and drug-inspired visionaries, it was also the best way to partake in the era’s hippest form of artistic expression, in numbers previously unknown to man.
