Music Friendly Community

Being a Music Friendly Community means the Village of Salado is dedicated to promoting the music community by supporting and connecting music industry stakeholders and aiding in measures that formulate a conducive environment for a thriving local music scene. 

"Salado has a long history of supporting Music and the Arts. Being a part of this statewide certification program opens new opportunities to expand and strengthen Salado’s commitment to Music." - Richard Paul Thomas, Chair of Music Friendly Community Advisory Board and musician/songwriter

"Becoming an official music friendly community by the Texas Music Office is simply reinforcing what we've already known.  Salado is, and has been, a friend and advocate for the live music world.  From our many talented local musicians all the way up to national touring artists, Salado loves live music!  I believe this designation gets us one step closer to showing that Salado is a destination and not just a quick stop on the way to another location." - David Seward, Vice-Chair of Music Friendly Community Advisory Board and music agent

As a venue owner and board member, I am excited for the potential to create partnerships with other Music Friendly Communities in the state. If this designation can help increase the diversity of musicians performing here and opportunities for all musicians within the Village of Salado it will be a great thing for the community. - K.D. Hill, Board Member of Music Friendly Community Advisory Board and music venue owner
