WHEREAS, Dallas singer-songwriter Scott Dean is celebrating |
|
|
the completion of his first collection of country music with a CD |
|
|
release party in Fort Worth on July 27, 2013; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, Active on the Texas music scene for nearly a decade |
|
|
as Scott Dean McCurry, Mr. Dean previously focused on playing |
|
|
contemporary rock and roll with a wide range of stylistic |
|
|
influences; he released four studio albums before recording his new |
|
|
country EP, Re-Shuffle, under a shorter version of his name to avoid |
|
|
confusion with another performer with a similar moniker; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, Mr. Dean grew up listening to country music and has |
|
|
been inspired by the works of such artists as the Flying Burrito |
|
|
Brothers and Jerry Jeff Walker; in recording his country debut, he |
|
|
maintained his allegiance to upbeat melodies, high-energy songs, |
|
|
and memorable lyrics, as is evident from the title of the first |
|
|
single from the release, "Hungover All Over Again"; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, Through his musical endeavors, Scott Dean is |
|
|
contributing to the cultural vibrancy of the Lone Star State, and he |
|
|
is indeed deserving of recognition as he embarks on the next |
|
|
exciting chapter of his career; now, therefore, be it |
|
|
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 83rd Texas |
|
|
Legislature, 2nd Called Session, hereby congratulate Scott Dean on |
|
|
the release of his country music debut and extend to him sincere |
|
|
best wishes for continued success; and, be it further |
|
|
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be |
|
|
prepared for Mr. Dean as an expression of high regard by the Texas |
|
|
House of Representatives. |
