Why ‘Love Island’ Is Crucial to This Austin Songwriter

There are so many different kinds of musicians in Austin, but some should also be considered poets for the talented prose they weave into songs. Host Nikki DaVaughn is joined today by one of Austin’s talented vocalists and songwriters, Julie Bouchard, who gets her inspiration for songs from an unexpected source. They discuss how vocalists and songwriters can make it in Austin, what drew Julie to town to begin with, and impart advice on the next generation of Austin musicians. And stay tuned for our special weekly segment, A Mile in Their Boots, featuring a bonus interview with Ricky Brennes, the executive director in charge of Bevo, the University of Texas’ mascot. This is the third of five episodes we'll be doing about the music community in Austin, brought to you by our exclusive launch sponsor, Tecovas. Tecovas knows more than handmade boots and fine Western wear — they’ve got an ear for great music, too. From legends of the past to rising stars on the scene, they love supporting musicians and music fans right here in Austin. So if you’re headed for a good time on the stage or in the crowd, go in good boots from Tecovas. You can hear Julie Bouchard play live at our Austin in Stereo showcase, from 5 to 8 p.m. on Thursday, Sept. 12, at the Tecovas store on South Congress. We’d like to thank Tecovas, who makes our favorite Western wear in town, for being our exclusive launch sponsor. Want some more Austin news? Then make sure to sign up for our Hey Austin newsletter.
