Episode 7: Music Friendly Texas Certified Community

Featured Guests: Kristen Gibson & Tami McDonald

Excerpt (Kristen Gibson): “It's definitely a process and it's definitely a lot of work ... but when you look at our community and all of the joy that the music in our community brings, it's 100 percent worth it."

Excerpt (Tami McDonald): “All the musicians that I know just help each other out. That's the kind of music community that we're creating here in Granbury. It's all for one and one for all."

Overview: Back in February 2023, Granbury, Texas, was designated as the 40th Music Friendly Certified Community by the Texas Music Office. On this episode of Uniquely Granbury, we’ll explain exactly what that means. Spoiler Alert: It’s a big deal. Tammy Dooley, director of Visit Granbury, confirms that bold claim in the first four minutes of the podcast. She also talks about her staff's significant role in making this vision a reality. Kristen Gibson, assistant director of Visit Granbury, is the one who spearheaded the initiative. On this episode, she discusses the process and hard work that went into the designation, and she shares the amazing ripple effect that is being felt across the Granbury Music Scene.

Other guests include: Chip Adams and Rebecca Meadors.
