VALLEY COUNTRY: 3 other great acts

Here are some other country artists you might want to check out:

>> Last Call If you're in the mood for some classic country music, check out Last Call. They often play at the Las Palmas Racetrack in Mission, but they travel to Laredo for shows sometimes.

>> Jealous Heart They don't have any music on their MySpace, but Jealous Heart promises "good ‘ole country music" with a little Tejano. At a Jealous Heart show, you're going to find lots of dancing, some fine fiddle-playing and a good time had by all.

>> The Throwbacks Country and Reggae? The Throwbacks who call Port Isabel home blend country, reggae and rock to create a sound that's familiar, but very different from what you recognize as country music.
