Texas Sun (2020, Dead Oceans) was the first of Khruangbin and Leon Bridges’ two Texas collaborations, pairing the Houston trio’s laid-back instrumental groove with Bridges’ Fort Worth soul voice. Khruangbin formed in 2010 and got a Best New Artist nomination at the 2025 Grammy Awards, fourteen years in.
