“Gretchen Barber has long been a selfless and energetic supporter of the Austin music scene. I’m never surprised when it turns out she’s been involved in some crucial scene event or another because she so often is. Her knowledge of Austin music is as extensive as her friendships, business relationships and range of contacts among Texas musicians. There are few in the music community with her track record, knowledge, good sense and unerring instincts. There is no way to overstate my appreciation and high regard for Gretchen.”
