Kelli and Bob Phillips Kelli and Bob Phillips share more than their love for each other…they share a love for people. Each has made a career of staying in constant contact with the audiences they have built in their almost life-long careers in communications. Now they are traveling the Texas backroads together as co-hosts of “Texas Country Reporter.”

Kelli Lee first appeared on television and in print at the age of 14 in commercials and ads for various businesses. At 18, Kelli became the youngest local host of Evening Magazine in the country when she was hired by KENS-TV in San Antonio while still a student at the University of Texas in Austin. She quickly expanded into working in radio on KTFM and KTSA in San Antonio and fell in love with the instant contact aspect offered by live radio In 2003, Kelli became the morning news person as a member of the KFDM Morning Show. She soon added the noon news program to her duties and, in 2007, became the anchor of the Live at Five program and co-anchor of 6 News at Ten. When longtime 6PM news anchor Larry Beaulieu retired in 2011, Kelli was chosen to replace him on the program.

Bob Phillips started his professional career while still a college student when he was hired by KDFW-TV in Dallas at the age of 18 and a first semester freshman at SMU where he later received both his BFA and MLA degrees. He was a TV news cameraman, film editor, assignments editor, reporter, producer and anchor during his 16 years at KDFW. During that time he did general assignments reporting and also covered the political beat where he followed stories from city council meetings to the state legislature to national political conventions.

He covered The Dallas Cowboys as a photographer and was on the sidelines of every game they played, during the 1970s and early 80s. He also shot game footage for NFL Films and later worked at WFAA-TV in Dallas.

In the early 70s, Bob and a group of journalists at KDFW started the program “4 Country Reporter,” as a way to cover news in small towns and out of the way places. The program quickly became a feature show about the lives of everyday Texans. It was an instant success with Bob as its producer and host. In 2021, the show that is now called “Texas Country Reporter” and is seen by more than a million people each week on 26 different television stations in 19 Texas markets (and nationally on RFD-TV) will begin a year long celebration of its 50th anniversary. The program is produced by the Phillips’ production company that is based in Dallas.

During the celebration of 50 years of TCR, there will be events and activities all over Texas including a statewide symphony tour titled “Texas Tribute” that will feature Bob and Kelli onstage with local orchestras as they play Texas themed music, interspersed with narrative passages read by Bob and Kelli. Bob’s new book about 50 years of TCR, A Good Long Drive, was published by U.T. Press in late 2021. And the 26th Annual TCR Festival will take place in Waxahachie on October 29, 2022, with an emphasis on celebrating 50 years of “Texas Country Reporter.”

PROGRAM NOTES A TEXAS TRIBUTE (2021) Music by David Lovrien (b. 1963) Script by Bob Phillips & Mike Snyder Composer David Lovrien has been a fan of Texas Country Reporter since its beginning. After his family moved to Texas from Nebraska in 1971, TCR was his first introduction to “what Texas was like.”

TCR co-hosts Bob & Kelli Phillips first met David in May 2018 at a Richardson Community Band concert. David’s Texas Saxophone Quartet performed as guest artists, and Bob was emcee for the concert. David’s arrangement of The Hill Country Theme was also included that day, and after the concert Bob shared his dream with David and his wife Grace - to create a symphonic program where he and Kelli could narrate stories of Texas history, culture, and tales from their half-century of travels. He had seen CBS reporter Charles Kuralt, famous for his “On The Road” series, give a similar concert many years ago based on North Carolina culture, and Bob was sure the richness of Texas lore could be even more successful.

David volunteered to compose the underscore for the project, and Bob began writing a script with TCR senior producer Mike Snyder. They then turned things over to David to create a live soundtrack to complement the spirit and emotion of the powerful stories they gathered.

The seven movements of “A Texas Tribute” are spread over the course of the concert, interspersed with other favorite Texas and western-themed selections.

TEXAS REVOLUTION - The first movement describes the beginnings of our state, from the Texas Declaration of Independence to the Alamo. Bob reads the words of early settler Micajah Autry and the stirring final letter of William Travis from the Alamo. The soundtrack paints a serene landscape, with noble fanfares rising from within. During the Alamo section, listen as the horns and trumpets echo the fateful bugle call “El Degüello” (The Throat-cutting) - sounded by Santa Anna’s troops to signal the Alamo defenders that no quarter would be given.

TEXAS CONSTITUTION - The revolution is won. Kelli reads the preamble to the Texas Constitution and the fanfare theme returns.

THE COWBOY LIFE, PART 1 - Bob & Kelli describe the inescapable cowboy stereotypes associated with Texas.

26

THE COWBOY LIFE, PART 2 - Sentimental western melodies rise like smoke from a dying campfire as Bob reads the wistful words of true Texas cowboy J.S. Kenyon, who retired from the historic XIT ranch in 1904.

OIL BOOM - In 1901, the famous Spindletop oil well struck it rich. Listen for the thumping bass drum as Bob describes early drilling technology, followed by Kelli reading reports from Galveston newspapers of the day, accompanied by upbeat ragtime tunes.

HUMOR & POLITICS - Texas certainly has its own brand of humor. Some say the way we talk is funny enough, but the wit and wisdom of Texas writers and politicians gives Texas humor - and politics - a character like nowhere else.

FINAL THOUGHTS/CLOSING - Bob & Kelli conclude by reciting the poem “God Save Texas.” by Marcia Ball & Lawrence Wright.
