“Hyram Posey’s music blows like a soft wind out of the southwest. It carries with it bits and pieces of mountain tops, canyons and the desert floor; and paints with all the colors of nature a wondrous sound both haunting and revealing. The listener is treated to images of smoke on the horizon, coyotes and hawks gliding on airstreams and wild rivers running free. A virtuoso muscian, Hyram Posey is one of a kind…original, and his music is AMERICA !
…………………….John Hartman, Alive Records, Hollywood, California
He’s a champion fiddler…. after mastering “Contest Fiddle” he went on to composing all types of fiddle music. If you enjoy fiddle music, you’re sure to enjoy HYRAM POSEY.
…………………….Johnny Gimble
Hyram Posey, through his individual and thoroughly modern style, you can hear echos of the past, times when his great grandfather rode with Charles Goodnight, and feels his love for the land from whom the mythical cowboy emerged.
