The Ronny Spears Interview

The Texas music world took a pretty big hit to its heartstrings today.

Ronny Spears--a Texas musician who defined the hardcore honkytonk ideal and passed it along to so many others while making friends along the way--sadly, has passed away.

Ronny was a constant. Like the sun in the sky. Always around. You could take comfort in the act Ronny was playing somewhere near you. The White Elephant. Love & War. Hank's. You name the place.

And like the sun, Ronny shined brightly. In his collaborations with others. In his kindness. In his masterful songwriting. And, in his fierce belief in having something to say with a song. Something HE wanted to say.

Tomorrow, we'll have the podcast from our trip to The Cowboy Club where Ronny threw a benefit for his Aunt Su-Su. But tonight, here's our talk with everybody's friend, Ronny Spears.
