You may have heard The
WST Bluegrass Band at the Texas Folklife festival in San Antonio, at
State AFLCIO conventions, or at Municipal and State events
throughout Texas. The band has also played the Austin International
Airport, in festivals in Brady, Llano, Bryan-College Station,
Bastrop, and of course Austin. WST plays as many as eight shows
each season on the Bluegrass Music Capital of Texas stage at Oakdale
Park in Glenrose, Texas.

It is not uncommon to
hear WST on radio stations in Mississippi, Alabama, and Texas. They
played on the University of Texas award winning radio program
"Folkways," as well as several appearances at the famed Broken Spoke
and the Texas Chili Parlor. The WST Bluegrass Band remains
extremely popular as the famous "Green Mesquite" Sunday night house
band. A giant color mural on the patio shows the band in action. A
sight to see and enjoy while listening to the hard driving licks and
sweet harmonies of the "Most Entertaining Bluegrass Band in Texas!"

The Green
Mesquite is home for WST, and is where they play regularly when not
traveling. They are always heading the lineup on the third Friday
night of every month at the Manchaca Fire Hall "all-you-care-to-eat"
Catfish Fry. Where you can eat good food, hear great music, and
have a fabulous time for the whole family. WST is often joined by
local and nationally famous musicians and singers. Many of these
performers often join WST for exciting and often unpredictable
musical moments.
