Fresh off the news that they've got new music in the works, Sugarland have been added to the lineup for this year's 'Dick Clark's New Year's Rockin' Eve' TV special.
David Letterman is a pretty big fan of Ray Wylie Hubbard. Last fall, his producers contacted Ray to appear on the Late Show. As a result, RWH came on the show and performed 'Mother Blues' from his newest CD 'The Grifter's Hymnal'. But Letterman had a special request that Hubbard stick around to perform an older song that isn't necessarily ideal for his CBS network television audience.
We're not sure how excited Ray Wylie Hubbard gets about live performances these days, but the Texas music legend was clearly thrilled to have the opportunity to perform before a national TV audience on The Late Show with David Letterman. Wednesday night (1/9), Hubbard got that opportunity, and he and his band knocked it out of the park.
Hardcore Texas music fans know all about Ray Wylie Hubbard and his contribution to the music scene, both as a singer/songwriter and a producer of great young talent. But outside the southwestern United States, knowledge of his legendary status is more underground than mainstream. That's why it's all the more cool that Hubbard has been asked to play 'The Late Show with David Letterman' on January 9
Larry Joe Taylor's music festival starts this Tuesday through Saturday in Stephenville at the Melody Mountain Ranch. This years line-up is a star studded event.
