Celebrating the Best in Honky Tonk Music in Texas.
The Broken Spoke is Texas' most definitive dance hall. It's has a musical history that dates back to Bob Wills and The Texas Playboys.

National Geographic called us "Their favorite night spot."
A Member of the visiting Soviet delegation said Broken Spoke was their favorite event of the tour. Also, after visiting the Broken Spoke, the Soviet delegation arrived back in Russia and democracy was restored two weeks later. Coincidence? James M. White likes to think he had hand in it. ;)
Among many of the famous visitors to Spoke (and we've had quite a few), the Queen of England's entourage stopped in to get a feel for what a true Texas Honky-Tonk was like.
Among the TV & Movie Stars to visit have been Clint Eastwood, Robert Duval, Dolly Parton, Lonnie Anderson, and Dan Rather.
