Country music legend Slim Bryant
We are extremely lucky to have a bona fide country music “legend” living in Pittsburgh. Centenarian Slim Bryant resides in Dormont and is an historic figure in C&W, who’s illustrious career includes having written the Jimmie Rodgers’ classic, Mother, the Queen of My Heart. Bryant’s Wildcats were a radio staple in the Fifties, with frequent performances on KDKA’s “The Farm Show.”
