Our name, inspired by Greil Marcus's iconic book on Dylan (and used with his blessing), hints at what we do best: honoring tradition while bending it into new, unexpected shapes.  The result is a sound that's soulful, high-energy, and unapologetically off the beaten path: built for listeners who like their roots music a little weirder and a lot more alive.

Hurry Caine Butterflies

Hondo’s musical journey began in 1987, when he received his first guitar at age 15. Since then, music has remained a central part of his life. Influenced by artists including Zakk Wylde, Ozzy Osbourne, Bruce Dickinson, Geoff Tate, Dave Grohl, Hank Williams Jr., Neil Young, Joe Bonamassa, and Warren Haynes, Hondo has developed a sound that blends eclectic acoustic rock, strong vocals, and meaningful lyrics. As a musician and sound man, he values the connection music creates and brings heart, authenticity, and passion to every performance with Hurry Caine Butterflies. “Music is a way of life.” Fred Hartnett was born November 11, 1958, in Sioux City, Iowa, and grew up surrounded by a wide range of musical influences. His sister introduced him to 1960s rock, while his parents listened to artists such as Vicente Fernández, Freddy Fender, and Ramón Ayala. Growing up in Spain also exposed Fred to Spanish music and dance, including tap and flamenco, adding another layer to the rhythm and movement that shaped his musical style. Fred began performing at an early age, playing his first gig at age nine with the Latin American Club band and, by age 11, performing with adults in a funk band called Black Experience. He later played with Amasia in clubs throughout Madrid. After returning to the United States in 1976, Fred expanded into rock, discovering artists such as Aerosmith, Ted Nugent, and Led Zeppelin. In 1978, he left college to tour Canada for several years with the band Eruption. Throughout his life, Fred continued performing while building a career in the iron industry, including playing original music with his brother in Circle Three. After retiring, he performed with Central Park, the Mark Weston Band, Grey Beard, and other groups. After moving to Texas during COVID, Fred became a regular at open-mic nights at The Gringo, later joining 7 Year Drought before his musical journey ultimately led him to Hurry Caine Butterflies. Fred brings to the band a lifetime of experience shaped by Latin traditions, Spanish culture, funk, classic rock, touring, and decades of live performance.

Instrumentation includes fiddle, accordion and acoustic guitar, sometimes adding the p’tit fer (basse triang’), contrebasse, and lap steel guitar, as the situation warrants.

The group has produced three albums. The first album, "Elevés à Pilette," was released in vinyl and tape on the ARZED label in 1987, and re-released on the LFM label in cd and tape in 1996. That album was produced by Zachary Richard, who also sings on one track, and includes the late Dewey Balfa as a guest musician on several tracks, along with the five Michot brothers (Rick, Tommy, Bobby, David, Mike). The second album, "La Roue Qui Pend,” was released in Spring 2003 (cd) on the Swallow Records label and features Tommy's sons, Grammy winners Andre and Louis, along with four of the original brothers (Tommy, Rick, David, Mike). The third album, "La Caroline," was recorded at La Louisianne studio in Lafayette and was released in September of 2008 on the LFM label (cd); it features Rick's son Patrick along with brothers Tommy and Rick. La Caroline was re-released out of France as “Dedans le sud de la Louisiane” under the Fremeaux label.

Roy Herrera

My name is Rogelio (Roy) D. Herrera and I live in Alpine, Texas. Now retired, I can concentrate on performing as a solo guitar singer/song writer. I sing original songs and a blend of covers that include classic country, rock n’ roll, blues and Spanish tunes. Growing up in Fort Stockton, Texas (El Comanche), my inspiration for music began with singing acapella gospel music and listening to classical Mexican Mariachi music, blues, rock n’ roll and country from the 50’s, 60’s and 70’s. As I play classic and acoustic 6-string guitars, my music is a natural raw sound to kick up your heels or for dancing belt-buckle polishing music. If you wish to write a song for someone or for an event or cause, I am willing to assist you with the wording and can add guitar music to it. Also, if there is a current song/s that you wish to hear, I can try to accommodate. I have no claim to fame but I have played in Alpine’s local venues for the past 2 years and in the Terlingua area, south Brewster County. I am willing to play in public and in private venues. As I mostly perform solo, there is always the possibility of performing as a duo or trio, etc. I have music equipment for an independent setup on or off the grid. I am available for any day of the week, indoors or outdoors. Thank you for supporting the local venues and local musicians. “HAVE GUITAR, WILL TRAVEL”

He took some of those songs in 2019 to a local producer where he constructed Texas Most Wanted; his first EP. After spending half of a decade building a catalogue of songs and honing his songwriting skills, while also spending time in local studios, and playing local venues and festivals, in 2023 he decided to take his talents to Music City (Nashville TN) where he recorded most of his self-titled EP, “Ryan Talley”. In 2024 his touring efforts took off as he put together a live band and explored the vast Texas Music Scene. His music is riddled with traditional country sounds reminiscent of artist like Clint Black, Don Williams, and George Strait.

The Vagenda

Way out in far West Texas, seven desert daughters were said to have risen from the cracked earth itself. Legend claims they wandered the Big Bend righting petty injustices with rhythm, harmony, and a beat that bent the wind until the whole desert whispered their name-The Vagenda, like a spell that could only be cast by women who knew their own power. Hidden Kitten’s voice split lies in half, Sick Lick’s lightning strung guitar exposed the truth, Hot Pocket’s rhythms steadied the land, Pussy Willow’s bass shook secrets loose, Mystic Rambler summoned visions with her cajón, and Hatchet Wound’s war drum sent cowards running while her dance rewrote the night. Behind them moved Hot Mike, the silent man in black, tuning their echoes like a guardian of the sand. Featuring vocals powerful enough to raise the dead and harmonies smooth enough to tame a dust storm, The Vagenda brews a fierce blend of classic and alternative rock, pop, and whatever else the desert demands. Their stacked percussion section drives the message home: Get ready-The Vagenda is coming for you.

Since their first single in 2019, Vision Arcade has drawn acclaim from magazines, blogs, and radio stations, and racked up millions of streams across platforms.
