Governor Greg Abbott today announced that the City of Glen Rose has been designated by the Texas Music Office (TMO) as a Music Friendly Texas Certified Community after completing the multi-step certification process. The Music Friendly Texas program, the first in the nation since introduced by TMO in 2016, seeks to foster music business-related economic development and job creation in Texas cities and communities.
"Congratulations to the City of Glen Rose on earning the Music Friendly Texas Certified Community designation," said Governor Abbott. "Music is key to the Texas brand and is deeply rooted in the cultural traditions of our great state. Music Friendly Texas Communities certified by the Texas Music Office work hard to attract and develop the local music industry to boost local job creation and economic growth. In fact, with support from the Texas Music Office, the Texas music industry accounts for more than 192,000 direct and indirect permanent jobs and generates more than $26 billion in annual economic activity statewide. Together, we will continue to work alongside communities in every region of our state to amplify their growth and success."
"I am very excited for Glen Rose to be named a Music Friendly Texas Certified Community," said Senator Brian Birdwell. "Glen Rose has a rich history of music and culture. I thank Governor Abbott and the Texas Music Office for recognizing Glen Rose with this designation that will help our music industry grow and thrive."
"As Mayor of Glen Rose, Texas, I am proud to announce Glen Rose's designation as a Music Friendly Texas Certified Community," said Joe Boles, Mayor of Glen Rose. "Our city is more than just a dot on the Texas map; it's a place where history, nature, and creativity converge. Glen Rose is committed to providing a vibrant community that promotes, supports, and celebrates the music industry. We encourage our citizens, local venues, and visitors to join us in setting the stage for growth as a live music destination—one that warmly welcomes both musicians and music lovers alike."

"In a world where there are so many things that divide us—music is one of the few things that unites people across all realms," said Troy Hill, City Administrator of Glen Rose. "We look forward to establishing Glen Rose as one of the premier music designations in Texas."
"Glen Rose proudly wears the badge of a Music Friendly Texas Certified Community," said Rita Smith, Director of Tourism for Visit Glen Rose. "Our scenic and welcoming 4 square miles, brings together locals and tourists alike to celebrate talented musicians, unique venues, and vibrant performances. Glen Rose is honored to take our position as a sought-after music destination for seasoned and up and coming artists, touring their way across Texas. We are incredibly thankful to the Texas Music Office for helping us spread our enthusiastic message: 'Gotta Go to Glen Rose!'"
"Becoming a music friendly designation has far-reaching benefits for a small town such a Glen Rose, impacting its economy, culture, community spirit, and overall vitality," said Tricia Sexton, Owner of Sexton's Mill, Riverside Live Music Venue.
