International Billboard charting jazz saxophonist Tom Braxton has garnered critical acclaim while thrilling audiences of all ages from coast to coast and abroad for over two decades. From Africa to Japan...from New York to L.A., Braxton’s distinct, melodic sound leaves audiences astounded, clapping, and on their feet screaming for more! His music can be heard on radio and streaming platforms such as Spotify and Pandora, and his albums have hit numerous jazz charts including Billboard, RadioWave, SmoothJazz.com, Groove Jazz Music, Capital Jazz Radio, and Amazon. That's why Jazz Review calls Braxton "one of smooth jazz's most prolific saxophonists...with all the required tools to become a major force." In the summer of 2020, Braxton signed with Innervision Records and released a single entitled "Lookin' Up." This fun, upbeat track was written and produced by Los Angeles keyboardist Herman Jackson. Tom’s second single, “Hope for Tomorrow” features the jazz icon Bob James. Both singles landed on the Smooth Jazz Billboard Chart and ranked #1 on Amazon’s Best Seller and New Releases list! Tom’s album, also entitled Lookin' Up, was released on August 6, 2021. Tom has released three singles from his upcoming CD, “Flashback” set to drop in February 2026. In the summer of 2023, he released his hit single, “Hub City Jam” featuring Rick Braun. This lively funky groove, produced by Blake Aaron, was inspired by his love for his hometown of Lubbock, TX. The single was added to Spotify’s popular “New Smooth Jazz” playlist as well as Pandora’s “New Smooth Jazz Today” playlist. It also received widespread recognition on the smooth jazz charts. In his second single, “Canyon Dreams”, Braxton captures the calm and relaxing vista behind his childhood home. The lilting melody and infectious groove are designed to inspire the listener to reflect and dream. “East Side Hang”, his third single, is a slamming musical neighborhood block party that pays homage to his community in west Texas. Tom celebrates his sister with his latest single, Ruby J.,a fun groove that captures her playful nature. Ruby's early piano playing inspired Braxton to begin his musical journey around 8 years of age. Additionally, this versatile instrumentalist has recorded ten albums including The Other Side, The Next Chapter, Endless Highway, and Imagine This on the Pacific Coast Jazz label and Bounce on the Rendezvous label. The Next Chapter features Grammy winners Bob James, Earl Klugh, and Ricky Lawson, as well as one of Smooth Jazz's most beloved guitarists, Peter White. They all lend their amazing talents to stellar duets with Tom's lyrical saxophone. He was inducted into the West Texas Walk of Fame in 2017. He has been a featured artist and fan favorite on the Smooth Jazz Cruise for 15 years. This charismatic performer has been a headliner on the Algarve Smooth Jazz Festival in Portugal, the Mallorca Smooth Jazz Festival in Mallorca, Spain, the Stanbic Jazz Festival in Ghana, the Smooth Jazz Europe Festival in the Netherlands, and the Nile Gold Jazz Safari in Uganda. He was also showcased on the Java Jazz Festival in Jakarta, Indonesia. Braxton toured with Earl Klugh in the U.S., with past tours in South Africa, Malawi, Mozambique, Ghana, and Japan. He also performed with Keiko Matsui in Russia, Eastern Europe, Malaysia, and Japan. For 17 years, Tom toured extensively with Wayman Tisdale as his Musical Director. Braxton has shared the stage with many great artists including Dave Koz, Rick Braun, Peter White, Brian Culbertson, Bob James, Lee Ritenour, George Duke, Kirk Whalum, Jonathan Butler, Sheila E., Aretha Franklin, Luther Vandross, and Philip Bailey. He has been featured in media and publications such as JAZZIZ, Smooth Jazz News, The Saxophone Journal, CBS's The Saturday Early Show, Ugandan Television, and Daystar Television Network.

Founded in 2001, the Museum acknowledges the multicultural contributions of Hispanic Americans, Native Americans, European Americans, Asian and African Americans in the settlement of the American frontier. Works of artists and others who documented people and events of the time via journals, photographs, and other historical items are part of the museum's collection of overlooked materials that tell, often for the first time, our complete story. Through various educational programs (e.g., storytelling sessions, "Forgotten Cowboys Tour," cultural heritage workshops, historical reenactments, participatory learning, and hybrid programming) at the museum and in the community, the Museum shares our multicultural western heritage while instilling positive values of diversity, tolerance, hard-work, and determination. Visitors to the Museum and at our traveling exhibitions leave with an awareness that the American West came into being through the struggles and triumphs of racially and socio-economically diverse people.
