Out Now! - One Night In Texas: The Next Waltz’s Tribute to The Red Headed Stranger

On May 1, 2022 an all-star lineup of guests backed by The Next Waltz founder Bruce Robison’s house band performed as part of an 89th birthday celebration for Willie Nelson in his very own backyard in Luck, TX.

"To put together a night of Willie Nelson music is a bit of a dream for me. His songs and the vibe of The Family band was so formative that it is hard to measure. The music has always been a part of my life - a North Star. When we got together a bunch of friends for the band, playing this music, after these couple years - honestly, it felt like it was about more than just Willie. Then, the crazy group of guests signed on for the show, and then Bobbie passed, and then Willie decided he would come play a set after us. The night just felt like some kind of celebration of life. When it was coming together I knew I had to try to record it. When I heard what was on tape it sounded like magic to me. It sounded like 1973. It is definitely the sound of people having fun. This was a great night in Texas. The band was a runaway train and the singers were insane. Thanks to everybody who lent their talents to this." - Bruce Robison

One Night in Texas: The Next Waltz’s Tribute to the Red Headed Stranger, will be released on April 28, 2023 — one day before Willie turns 90.
