RANDY BROOKS, Well what can you say about Randy, writer of “Grandma Got Run Over By a Reindeer” ? Only that, after all these years, he continues to write and perform his zany brand of original songs and continues to delight his audience as he delivers the unexpected. This Dallas-based songwriter was voted SESAC songwriter of the year, for “Grandma...”

Born out of years of friendship in the Dallas-based band, “Young Country”, old friends come together again, as SOUTHWESTERN PILGRIMAGE. The group takes its original material and combines it with songs from some of the best songwriters in the Southwest, embellishing them with tight vocal harmonies and unique instrumental interpretations. With songs about wide open spaces, rivers, romance and legends of the West ....They represent all that is good in American music.

RICK SPARKS, who now lives in Virginia City, NV, has been in the music business for over 40 years. In addition to his smooth vocals, he is equally at home playing banjo, guitar, mandolin, dobro and pedal steel guitar. He has developed a reputation as an outstanding teacher on all of his instruments and has many students under his wing.

KAREN ROEMMICH, upon inheriting a guitar and musical inspirations from her sister, taught herself to play her real passion, the stand up bass. Her excellent ear for music helps to create the band’s smooth, close harmony blend as well as providing a solid rhythm for the band. She also calls Virginia City, NV, home.
