Other artists who have recorded his songs include Hoyt Axton, John Denver, Jerry Jeff Walker, and Sturgill Simpson.

In addition to singing and songwriting, Fromholz dabbled in acting, playwriting, poetry, record producing, narrating, jingle-writing and whitewater river guiding.

The accident occurred as Fromholz was making preparations to hunt feral hogs who were killing the baby goats on a ranch near his residence outside Eldorado, Texas.

In 2019, efforts began toward the making of a documentary film about the life and works of Fromholz, titled The Man with the Big Hat, the name of one of his most popular songs.

The documentary was shot over several years in multiple states, with cinematography by Aaron Colussi and David Broad, sound by Miles Blunt, and editing by Nevie Owens.

[9] The Man with the Big Hat features interviews with Lyle Lovett, Darcie and Felicity Fromholz, Ray Benson, Janey Lake, Darden Smith, Bobbie Bridger, Jimmie Dale Gilmore, and others.
