Gulf coast Texas native Tressie Seegers brings something a little different
to today's music scene. Tressie combines two talents -- visual art and
songwriting -- into one unique show. Surrounded by her paintings as she
performs, this Americana songbird gives audiences an unforgettable and
enjoyable show to be inspired by.
Tressie's music is described by Americana legend Walt Wilkins as, "... music
that I like: Deep soulful country just two steps away on a well-worn path
from Texas country blues. Cool songs about real life - loss, love, work,
faith - sung straight from the heart for real people by a real woman with a
real and very cool voice."
Her talent has attracted the attention of another fellow Texan,the
incomparable songwriter Billy Joe Shaver. A fan and a friend, Shaver has
given Tressie a special gift she carries with her everywhere she goes: a
black Martin guitar filled with songs and special instructions on how to
shake 'em out. Legend among old-school songwriters is that songs actually
live inside guitars and can be shaken out. Shaver once borrowed Harlan
Howard's guitar and wrote several songs like "Old Chunk of Coal" and "Ride
Me Down Easy." When Howard learned of this, he made Shaver give the guitar
back so he wouldn't use up all the songs. What better gift could a
songwriter receive from such a fabled icon in music history?
Tressie fulfills the promise of that guitar, and writes and plays with heart
and soul. Her voice is pure Americana, honest, true and beautiful. And as
Billy Joe Shaver learned when he commissioned her to paint a tribute to his
late son, Tressie combines music and art in an unforgettable, truly Texan
way.
