After releasing 5 previous albums, Austin singer-songwriter Kyle Park recalled what inspired him to get into the music business and went back to basics on his record Don't Forget Where You Come From.

Before performing at Texas A&M University-Commerce on September 7, Park visited with Notably Texan to talk about staying relevant in an ever changing music world, the importance of public radio for independent artists, and lots more.
