Oral History Project
The Wasteland Oral History Project preserves the voices and memories of those who lived, shaped, and defined the Rio Grande Valley underground music scene from 1998-2008. Through interviews, audio recordings, video documentation, and personal archives, these firsthand accounts document the evolution of genres, the rise and fall of venues, the politics that shaped the movement, and the DIY foundations that continue to influence the Valley's music scene today.
