New music festival and charity event honors late local radio host
WICHITA FALLS (KFDX/KJTL) — A beloved radio host still lives on through a new music festival he started years ago. It's been just over two years since the passing of Wichita Falls radio personality Scotty Preston, also known as Scotty P. In his honor, his wife, Missy Scherer, brought back the Chick'n and Pick'n music festival, paired up with a charity effort. 'He asked me, you're my legacy now. And I want you to continue doing good things in my name,' Scherer said. Through Sunday afternoon, the Crazy Horse Saloon was home to music and dancing, all the while raising money to send to Homeless Lives Matter, a venture Scherer said Preston would have been all in on. 'He would volunteer to help you know, in any event, any situation, friend. He was the first one there,' Scherer said. This isn't the first Chick'n and Pick'n ever. Preston originally held the festival at a venue called The Outskirts to help promote up-and-coming artists. For those who performed at previous installments, like Toby Wayne, performing at the new Chick'n and Pick'n brought back a lot of memories. 'That nostalgia comes back, and you know, it hits you and some of the people that I haven't seen actually since Chick'n and Pick'n was going on that came out specifically for that event, they're out here tonight and I haven't seen them in that long,' Wayne said. Luke Robinson, another performing artist, says the new version of the festival, with the added charity spin, would make Preston feel right at home. 'He certainly had a passion, too, I think, for helping people when people were in need,' Robinson said. 'And having these fundraisers and being able to have some live music and to bring people together for that, that was a big deal for Scotty.' Whether it's helping new artists or giving to charity, the latest edition of Chick'n and Pick'n did Scotty P's legacy proud. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.
