Terri Ann Hendrix is a Texas-based singer-songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, and independent artist who has been writing and performing an eclectic mix of Americana genre, encompassing folk, pop, country, blues, and jazz, since 1990. Since 1998 Hendrix has been based in and near San Marcos, Texas, living as of 2021 in nearby Martindale,[1][2] after growing up in San Antonio, Texas.[3] Hendrix has released at least 20 albums and EPs on her own Wilory Records label, co-wrote the Grammy-winning song "Lil' Jack Slade" by the Dixie Chicks, and, in 2011, published a book, Cry Til You Laugh – The Part That Ain't Art.[2][4] As of 2021, Lloyd Maines, on guitars and backing vocals, has accompanied Terri Hendrix live and in recordings since 1997 and her second album.[5][better source needed]

Hendrix has cited Dolly Parton, Kate Bush, and Little Texas as early artistic influences, and Ani diFranco and John Prine as inspirations for producing and releasing her recordings independently instead of through a traditional record company.[2][6]

Known for her live shows and positive energy, Terri Hendrix says that she lives by the adage "own your own universe," a lyric from one of her earliest songs. In addition to writing and performing, Hendrix conducts songwriting workshops both in and beyond Texas,[7] and has established the community "Wilory Farm Center for the Creative Arts" on her farm in the San Marcos area, housing the OYOU ("Own Your Own Universe") nonprofit, which offers educational and therapeutic arts programs, including for those who face neurological challenges or physical disabilities.[1][8][9][5][10] Hendrix has named both her home "Wilory Farm" and her label "Wilory Records" in honor of her late mentor Marion Williamson's own "Wilory [goat] Farm" in Stonewall, Texas.[1][4] For some years through 2021, "Wilory Farm" has also been home to Hendrix's beloved pets, including several goats, several dogs, and Niem, a “donkey who thinks he’s a goat”.[11][additional citation(s) needed]

Terri Hendrix has long had focal epilepsy, which makes it difficult to tour, especially by air.[1][2][9][12] In 2019–2020, she was diagnosed with essential vocal tremor, likely related to her epilepsy.[11][13][14] Despite this vocal limitation, during the first two years of the COVID-19 pandemic, Hendrix and Maines frequently live-streamed concerts from her home, released her 20th recording, conducted classes and workshops, and in fall 2021, started again performing occasional live concerts in Texas.[15][16][17] In late 2021, Hendrix has stated that she is likely to limit herself to six formal live concerts per future year, due to her vocal issue.[citation needed]
