For the past 25 years, the talented Guy Forsyth has been sharing his passion for music in Texas. He has a busy solo career, plus The Guy Forsyth Blues Band, AND a forthcoming record by the remnants of his old band Asylum Street Spankers called The Hot Nut Riveters.

Never at a loss for words, Forsyth spoke with Notably Texan about his newly refined touring trio, his upcoming Blues Band overseas tour, plus he reminisced about founding Asylum Street Spankers.
