Steve Cormier🏘 7:30-9:30 pm |
Cowboy music is about the human condition, western version. Steve is a historian and folklorist and folksinger at heart with a focus on working cowboy songs. His repertoire includes but is not limited to cowboy songs collected by New Mexico’s own Jack Thorp. He even throws in a few originals and he embellishes his show with good stories. |
|
Steve Cormier’s music is mainly old and traditional cowboy fare and reflects his nine years as a ranch and farm hand. His music is also informed from teaching American history for twenty-two years. And along the way he has acted and performed in film and television productions as diverse as Wyatt Earp and Breaking Bad. |
