About Us

High lonesome harmonies with a rock n roll soul.

His was hard rock and heavy metal. Hers was the classic sound of the East Texas piney woods. Theirs was a fiery collision, bearing forth a sound that was at once novel and instantly familiar--high lonesome harmonies with a rock and roll soul.

Latest Album "FIREBALL"

Rated one of the top 20 Houston albums released in 2023 by the Houston Chronicle.
Available on CD, streaming, and RED VINYL (with bonus content).

In March, Brightwire will be releasing their 3rd album: Here, But Gone! To celebrate both the album and Kim's birthday, we're having a celebration at one of our favorite local spots: Black Magic Social Club. Grifters & Shills will kick off the night! Then, the one and only Shame on Me will close out the night! Brightwire will be right in the middle so we can party down and dance to Shame on Me after our set!

$10 at the door for this one!

What They're Saying

“Think Gillian Welch and David Rawlings by way of Houston.” - Joey Guerra, Houston Chronicle 

"An amped up Johnny Cash & June Carter." - Skope Mag

"Weaving dark tones and topics in sweet harmonies - what a beautiful way to make it go down, like cherry-flavored cough syrup." 
-Review of "Left Hand" music video

"Colorful. Creative. Absolutely laser sharp. Deserving, destined, and dense with a combination of articulate and contemplative lyrics, and a highly skilled and explorative musical aptitude." -The Ark of Music

"They break the mold with music that your mind and ears need to hear." -Indie Spoonful

"This album sounds better than most albums currently being released by major music labels. The vocals are exceptionally good. When John and Rebecca get going, you'll find it almost impossible to stay still." -Babysue
