⚡️ On this special episode of Jace Sits, I sit down with the Buddy Holly Center in Lubbock, Texas, to explore Buddy Holly’s enduring legacy, the fine arts community in Lubbock, the Silent Wings Museum, and much more. This episode premieres on The Day The Music Died in dedication to Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens, The Big Bopper, and pilot Roger Peterson.

From his humble beginnings in Lubbock to his lasting impact on music history, Buddy Holly’s influence can still be felt today. Join me as we take a deep dive into his story and the incredible work being done to preserve his legacy. ⚡️
