    Old Town Center for the ArtsCottonwood AZ (May 28, 2019) – Join us for a wonderful Spring concert with Don Whitcher and Peter James of The Slant 6 Cowboys, celebrating Americana Roots Music on Saturday, June 1st, 8:00 PM in Studio B at the Old Town Center for the Arts.  

    The Slant 6 Cowboys music takes you on an exciting train-ride to places you can only dream of. Voices like cool clear water; guitar playing that smokes and drives a coal burning rhythm and songwriting that could make an outlaw cry. The Slant 6 Cowboys are adept at many facets of Americana music, whether he is evoking the haunting echoes of a Mississippi night on slide or the biting edge of a Texas thunder storm on steel guitar. They paint music like the plaintive cries of old ghosts sweeping down from North Dakota into a Southwestern monsoon.

    Don Whitcher

    At 16 years old Don packed up an old guitar and drifted across the country, working more odd jobs than he can count, and writing stories he put to song. From god fearing men to sinners and back again; with skills honed to a sharp edge, and songs that will blow the top off a side show stage. This is some great music and definitely well worth seeing.

    Don Whitcher is a singer Songwriter who cultivates unique rhythm textures with the deep lyrics of a well traveled drifter.  This is true American Music. Especially with Peter James on Lead and rhythm guitar to light the way, like a spaghetti Western sountrtrack.

    The Symbolism of Jan. 6

    By Tommy Acosta
    Don’t mess with symbols. Just ask author Dan Brown’s character Robert Landon. The worth of symbols cannot be measured. Symbols make the world-go-round. Symbols carry the weight of a thousand words and meanings. Symbols represent reality boiled down to the bone. Symbols evoke profound emotions and memories—at a very primal level of our being—often without our making rational or conscious connections. They fuel our imagination. Symbols enable us to access aspects of our existence that cannot be accessed in any other way. Symbols are used in all facets of human endeavor. One can only feel sorry for those who cannot comprehend the government’s response to the breech of the capital on January 6, with many, even pundits, claiming it was only a peaceful occupation. Regardless if one sees January 6 as a full-scale riot/insurrection or simply patriotic Americans demonstrating as is their right, the fact is the individuals involved went against a symbol, and this could not be allowed or go unpunished.
