Led by multi-instrumentalists Howdy and Marilyn Darrell, A Town Called Home creates music rooted in South Texas grit and lifted by West Coast groove. Driving rhythms, close harmonies, and emotional directness place the band somewhere between a honky tonk and a front porch confession. 

Marilyn's clear-eyed songwriting, guitar, and diatonic accordion give the music its distinctive edge.  Howdy's Texas-rooted musicianship on guitar, mandolin, and upright bass, shaped by years playing alongside honky tonkers and troubadors, provides its backbone. Drawing from folk, traditional country, conjunto, and honky tonk, they write songs about work, memory, movement, and the pull of home.

They also drink excessive amounts of good coffee and take chips and salsa seriously.
