The songs and poems of 2007 Texas Poet Laureate Steven Fromholz tell of a life that began with “bikes and trikes and kites and trees” and has progressed through fatherhood and many days and nights spent on the road. He is a poet as well worth reading as he is a singer worth hearing.

Fromholz’s poetry and lyrics evoke the western landscape, capture memories of the past and plans for the future, and plumb the depths and heights of feeling engendered by life as a touring musician. Despite a stroke, which felled him for a time, Fromholz still acts a whitewater guide on the Rio Grande, still performs, and still writes the poems that caused the State Legislature to name him Poet Laureate of Texas for 2007.

Writings from 'The Man with the Big Hat"

The late Steven Fronholz was a Texas treasure: a poet, storyteller, singer, songwriter. His 'Texas Trilogy" is arguably the best song cycle ever written about small town Texas, and "The Man With the Big Hat" is one of the best cowboy songs ever written. Steve was tragically killed in a hunting accident in January 2014, but in this collection of poems and song lyrics, dating from his appointment as Poet laureate of Texas, his talent lives on.

I have always loved Steve Fromholz. His songs are magical and transport me to a place where I never lived, but it always feels familiar! This book takes on that same responsibility! Many thanks!
