Texas Music Cafe may not look like too much from the outside—just another storefront on Waco’s quiet 6th Street. But inside? The walls are close, the stage is in your face, and suddenly you’re in the middle of a show that could blow your hair back.

Past performances include blues legend Classic Ballou, guitar renegade Ian Moore, and Hamell on Trial (whatever the hell that was)—all of it filmed and streamed to the rest of the world.

And Waco? Half the time, it shrugs. But this is Waco’s real music export, whether the city is ready to claim it or not.
