The tradition of West Texas music has a firm foundation in Wichita Falls, Texas. Nesman Studios, started in the late 1940's by Louie and Sally Nesman, was visited by such greats as Buddy Holly, Slim Whitman, and others, each recording some of their greatest classics in this Wichita Falls recording studio. In fact, Nesman Studios was the first commercial recording studio that Buddy Holly recorded in. Located on York Avenue, this landmark studio was also the place for the first professional efforts of many other groups including the Sprague Brothers. The brothers lived on York Avenue, so it was a short walk of a block or so to the world famous Nesman Studios.Frank Lee Sprague, a native of Wichita Falls, formed Wichita Falls Records in 2004 to represent the cutting edge of futuristic original music.
