Don't Fence Me In

national council for the traditional arts

Few places in the world capture the imagination like the American West. From the range, ranch, reservation, and roadhouse, from the valley of the Rio Grande to the Bitteroot Mountains, the National Council for the Traditional Art’s (NCTA) Don’t Fence Me In: Songs, Music and Poetry of the American West explores the region’s celebrated musical and oral culture. Cowboy songs and poetry, western swing fiddle and vocal harmonies, lively Tex-Mex polkas and rancheras, and Northern Plains powwow drum and song are performed by exceptional artists specially selected by the NCTA—all working cowboys and other authentic representatives of today’s western culture.

Featuring Wylie and the Wild West (cowboy songs and High Plains yodeling), North Bear (Northern Plains Powwow drum and song); The Quebe Sisters Band (Western Swing and Texas fiddling); Los Texmaniacs (Tex-Mex Conjunto); Paul Zarzyski (Cowboy poetry)

SPONSORS These activities are supported, in part, with funds provided by the Western States Arts Federation (WESTAF) and the National Endowment for the Arts.
