October 27, 2011 Grammy award-winning BMI songwriter Joe Ely headlined the Greater Austin Restaurant Association Chapter Kick-Off Party, held recently at the Oasis on Lake Travis. In addition to reaching into his deep catalog that houses solo recordings as well as work with the Flatlanders and others, Ely performed songs from his new album, Satisfied at Last. The Texas native’s distinct sound has shaped generations of artists from his home state, while he has also influenced and shared the stage with a diverse list of international all-stars, from Bruce Springsteen to Uncle Tupelo to the Clash. Pictured are Gerald Stone, President of Greater Austin Restaurant Association Chapter and owner of El Mercado; Ely; and BMI’s Mason Hunter.
