Review: Texas band Pozo-Seco Singers gets its due in new documentary

'Nobody Famous' reflects on the checkered career of the group that included country singer Don Williams.

Folk group The Pozo-Seco Singers in the Columbia Records recording studios in 1966 in Los Angeles, California.Though little-known today, a trio from Texas was once in the thick of the ‘60s folk-pop explosion.

Angstrom catches up with the group’s lead singer, Taylor Pie, 50 years down the road and busier than ever: running an independent record label with a high-school classmate, producing and mentoring younger musicians, hosting a series of house concerts, and scurrying about various folk conferences.
