about

Darryl Lee Rush Darryl Lee Rush comes blasting into the Americana music scene with songs so noticeably fresh and strong, he’s easily won a huge following, dedicated fans and pages of praise for his debut CD, Llano Avenue. On his sophomore release, Darryl Lee Rush: Live from the River Road Ice House, the Dallas-based Shiner Records artist brings his sharp pen, compelling vocal, captivating guitar and riveting performance to a live, energetic night with Rush’s band caught on disc so that far-flung fans can experience what Rush’s memorable gigs are all about. Born in the small south central Texas town of Markham, a “town too tough to die,” Rush was raised in a house next door to the one where his father was born. Of his family, he says, “music was considered a family value.” Rush began playing in sixth grade on a classical guitar he cunningly refitted with steel strings. Lessons with a local bluegrass picker helped Darryl find his way musically, though Rush developed a smooth style with rough-rocking edges that’s uniquely his own. As his playing progressed, he quickly gained a large dedicated following at clubs in and around the Dallas music scene. Signing with Shiner Records changed things for Rush, as he explained in the Dallas Observer, "One day we're playing in the neighborhood, the next day we're opening for Diamond Rio at the Nokia Theater." Those bigger gigs allowed Rush to bring his expressive voice to enthusiastic audiences, and to play with artists and new friend
