Narvel Felts There are 2 new News Items from Narvel posted on his web site  News From Narvel I've added an "update" box where fans can post their email address to be notified immediately when the page has been updated so if you want to stay up-to-date with all of Narvel's latest news items, sign up and get notified each time something new is added to the page. I thought this would benefit the fans as well as Narvel since I'm not always able to get newsletters out on a regular schedule. Essie Shell reports: I got a letter from Narvel today, and for those of you who have DirectTV, he is supposed to be on the RFD Channel 379 tomorrow night, April 29th, May 27th and June 17th. Believe the time is 8:00 central and the show is called Midwest Country. These will be shows that were taped earlier, rather than recent shows, but those of you who know Narvel know he is still as good today as he has ever been. Hope you can watch them.

He’ve lived in Tennessee all his life, which is kind of rare for being a country artist. Most people move to Nashville, and he just kind of drive to it; it’s about thirty minutes away from home. He got into country music because of his grandfather. He got him listening to Marty Robbins, Lefty Frizzell, Hank Williams and people like that. It spurred him on to start listening to country music and create his own little niche for myself.
