   About Tressie Seegers
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.
