Al Connor - One of "the faithful", he is onstage nearly every week, singin' and playing everything needed - harmonica, washtub bass, percussion, train whistle ( all at once . . .??)

John & Janet McBride Ingram -Since 1997.  Board of Directors, coord. Buckaroo Club, yodeling seminars, COC musicians & vocalists, songwriting.  A world champion yodler with 50 years inb the business, Janet welcomes any chance to bring new yodelers into the world.  A few years ago, she was responsible for teaching a 7 yr. old girl named LeAnn Rimes to yodel, and all of us here at Cowtown Opry owe our yodelin' joys to this fantastic lady!!  Her tall and handsome sweetheart is John Ingram, and he had to learn yodeling too - just to keep up with her!

'Monty Teel -  Raised a cattle man, with a family history of livestock production, and Texas landholdings going back four generations, he's our resident cowboy poet - he knows how to tell


Bob & Johnie Terry - There's always fun afoot when these two are onstage.  Bob's irrespressible good humor and clear tenor voice are a perfect match to Johnie's sparkle when she's vocalizing and 'blue bass thumpin'. From Springtown, Texas, these two also own The Music Centre on Main Street in Azle.   http://www.wildwesttoys.com

Ashley Gilbreath - Folks 'round here call her 'Texas Red', and and I do mean RED . . . ya better watch out fer this sweet singin' gal -she's a quick study!
Walton Family - Jack, Teresa, Aaron and Matthew - We've seen very few 12 year olds with such a talent for pickin' acoustic lead guitar, dobro, mandolin, bass. . . mmmm, we like that 'Milk Cow Blues'!
