Cowtown Shut Down By: Kelsey Haynes
July 13, 2013
Americana music; thats what Eric Howell, Honky Suckle banjo player called it. Its a bunch of American music blended together, Howell said. Howell has been with Honky Suckle for close to five years. The band consists of: drummer and
vocalist Adam Howell, banjo player and vocalist Eric Howell, bass player Dave Smith and harmonica player Kyle Young. This group of old friends from Springfield, Mo. kicked off their nation-wide tour at the Old Cowtown Museum. They opened up for the popular Wichita band Carrie Nation and the Speakeasies at the Stomp & Holler benefit concert. You wont just want to sit for the evening said David Abbott, manager of earned income for the museum. Abbott has been with Cowtown for 11 years.
This was the second annual Stomp & Holler benefit put on by Cowtown. Teddy Barlow, museum curator and head of all music and entertainment, says the purpose of the benefit concert is to try to get people to remember that Cowtown is here and its still alive. She has been trying to get Carrie Nation to play at Cowtown for a while. The crowd that comes with them is wonderful, Barlow said. According to Abbott, the benefit drew in about 200 people last year. They hoped to get more than that this year. I expect some great music and some stomping and hollering, Barlow said. That expectation definitely came to pass. Its a neat spot to play, Howell said. His band had never played at Cowtown before, but they come to Wichita often. To Honky Suckle, Wichita is like a second home. According to Barlow, the Old Cowtown Museum has been around since about 1953 when the first buildings were collected. It became Cowtown around 1960. Three-quarters of the buildings are from the 1800s, including the city of Wichitas first church, first jail and first house. We accidentally educate people, Barlow chuckled. Mike Blakely, novelist and country-folk singer will perform at the museum on July 19 at 8 p.m. Tickets are $15 in advance and $18 at the door.
Cowtown is still alive, Barlow said.
