Headlining this years Bob Wills Fiddle Festival and Contest
will be the sons of country music Hall of Famer Merle Haggard,
Ben & Noel Haggard. For fans of the Haggard patriarch,
Ben Haggard is no stranger. Prior to Merle’s untimely
death, Ben had been the lead guitarist in his backing band
‘the Strangers” for more than eight years. Likewise,
talented brother Noel has been blessed with a familiar natural
phrasing and rich baritone that one would expect from someone
with his last name. You can expect some incredible tributes
to their Dad in this special show. And the Bob Wills Fiddle
Festival would not be complete without Bob Wills Texas Playboys
under the direction of Jason Roberts. Bob Wills Texas Playboys
was formed in 1933 by the King of Western Swing himself
– Bob Wills. And today, the Bob Wills sound continues,
as big and bright and brassy as ever under the guidance
of 2 time Grammy Award winner Jason Roberts. As soon as
Jason Roberts steps on a stage with his fiddle and utters
his first “AH-ha”, western swing fans know they
are in for a great night.
