River Bottom Rock
Wow! It's hard to write about the Brazos Brothers without also talking about the Brazos River. The river begins in New Mexico. Then, in West Texas, we have the Double Mountain Fork, Running Water Fork and, what gave that Brazos coffee its great taste, the Salt Fork. Too bad we can't drink the water anymore. Just as the waters of the river are varied, so are the Brazos Brothers songs. Since we have played music together and individually in various other settings for longer than I care to admit, folk, rock, country and a little jazz are all in there. In 1986, Jack Stephenson, Rocky Randall and Garry Spradlin formed SRS Music with the intent of writing music strictly for sale to other artists. By the time I paddled alongside, they had two or three minnow buckets full of tunes. With the addition of my bass guitar, and the pedal steel in the studio, the performance side of the music began to emerge. After hearing some of our "rough cuts", another brother from way back upstream invited us to his recording studio, Rockhouse Studio, to record a few songs and see how they sounded under better conditions. We recorded two CD's but only released the last one, "Harmony Road". Since the release of the “Harmony Road” CD, drummer Steve Hardin has come aboard to keep the time, add more punch to the bottom and hopefully, keep bringing the whiskey. We invite you also to come aboard and go with us as we drift past the sandbars, willow trees and sunsets of life's river, that flows always toward the deeper pool of water.

Story behind the song
"Quietly Waiting" is a look back at the girl that was always there for you, but never quite exciting enough to hold your attention.
Lyrics
She sits all alone quietly waiting The lights are low music softly playing Her mother looks in, "I guess he's coming." Yes she was always quietly waiting. The year was 69 last year of my high school We made all the plans that kids in love do And everyone said that I had it made Because she was always quietly waiting. So many years since I drifted away Our lives are as different as night and day But I'd give the world to know once again That she was there quietly waiting. chorus She had green eyes the greenest I've ever seen Oh, and long brown hair, the way she filled out her jeans And she had a smile that meant the whole world to me She was always quietly waiting.
