VALLEY FALLS — Unlike many western-lifestyle entertainers, R.W. Hampton is a cowboy first and a cowboy musician and actor second.

“I’ve always been a cowboy,” Hampton said on a recent Saturday morning in Valley Falls before he headed to Topeka to greet folks at a western store and then return to Jefferson County for a fundraising concert for the Valley Falls Saddle Club Arena.
