Willie Nelson is one of those rare artists who have come to be defined by their sheer indefinableness. He has made a career out of defying expectation. Rebellious Outlaw fighting Nashville’s staid production-line sensibilities; Award-winning country legend; crooning pop mega-star; working man. An incessant road master playing to sold out crowds worldwide on his own terms. Country boy. Golf enthusiast. Movie star. He’s covered reggae, rock and gospel tunes.
He’s played with punkettes L7 and symphony orchestras. Emmylou Harris, who spent a lot of time across the mic from Willie, has said, “If America has a voice it is Willie Nelson’s.” His musical talents and personal style show his audience a larger than life “Every Man” whose easy demeanor and well-spring of honesty in his life and music makes us feel at home.
Willie Nelson plays Wolverhampton's Civic Hall on Monday 12th May.
Tickets priced £37.50 and £30.00 are available from Midland Box Office: 0870 320 7000 or online at www.wolvescivic.co.uk
