Cactus Country Band was established over
35 years ago, and through the
years has become one of South Texas' most requested bands for
weddings, conventions, private parties, and festivals. In addition
to mainstream C&W music, they can perform a variety of styles of music
including oldies, classic rock, and event Latin hits to satisfy even the most diverse
audiences.
Cactus Country's resume includes many regional
festivals, and they are a favorite of the San Antonio Stock Show &
Rodeo. They
have also performed at the Texas State Fair in Dallas. Over the
years they have been featured with many Nashville stars, including Steve

They have been the backup band the last 10 years for the Texaco Country
Showdown, for both the local competition and the State Finals Competition,
which is coordinated through the Nashville Headquarters. This
