Slim fiVe Lineup

Far Out Booking is Jeff and Sha Gavin. For 10 years, Jeff, West Warren and Dixie Watkins produced The Rice Festival in honor of their friend, Rice Harrington who died unexpectedly in 2003. After 10 years, they all agreed it was time to retire the festival. Although it continued to be a sold out event, more and more of the folks coming didn't know who Rice was. In 2013, Jeff and Sha moved to Terlingua, Tx. Their friend, Francie Meaux Jeaux, wife of Slim Richey, told Jeff he should start up another music endeavor and call it Far Out Booking. Not having any intention of doing something at the time, the domain was available so they grabbed it. . .  you never know.

Tragically, Slim died all too soon in 2015 and, not long thereafter, Francie asked Jeff if he'd "throw a little party for her baby." The wheels were put in motion and (unbeknownst to anyone at the time), Slim Fest was born and is now held on the weekend in February closest to Slim's birthday (February 11). From the first year with Slim's band, The Jitterbug Vipers, Butch Hancock, Carolyn Wonderland, Alan Munde and more, to Slim fOUr with the Guy Forsyth Band, Bill Kirchen, The Cary Swinney Trio, The Emily Gimble Band and more, Slim's legend continues.
