This week V.B. Price talks with music commissioner Rick Huff about the often overlooked New Mexico music scene. Huff states that with proper support form the state legislature New Mexico, like Texas, is capable of a booming music industry. Unlike the film industry, the talent and revenue potential is completely home-grown.
For more information about New Mexico music, visit the New Mexico Music Commission website: www.newmexicomusic.org. The site offers a referral service and directory where artists can list the type of music they perform, contact information, photos, music samples, and links to further information.
Listen below to a sampling of the rich and varied musical talent in New Mexico.
