Wednesday, February 4, 2009 – Tom Brumley, a member of Buck Owens' Buckaroos, died Wednesday at 73 in San Antonio.

Brumley left Owens in the late 1960s and later teamed up with Rick Nelson in his Stone Canyon Band. He played on Nelson's big hit Garden Party.

Brumley won an Academy of Country Music award for steel guitar and was inducted into both the Texas Steel Guitar Hall of Fame and International Steel Guitar Hall of Fame.
