WILLIE NELSON & THE FAMILY
With a seven-decade career, Willie Nelson has earned every conceivable award as a musician and
amassed reputable credentials as an author, actor, and activist. He continues to thrive as a
relevant and progressive musical and cultural force. In recent years, he has delivered more than a
dozen new albums, released a Top 10 New York Times' bestsellers book, again headlined Farm
Aid, an event he co-founded in 1985, been honored by the Library of Congress with their Gershwin
Prize for Popular Song, received his 5th degree black belt in Gong Kwon Yu Sul, headlined the
annual Luck Reunion food and music festival during SXSW, launched his cannabis companies
Willie's Reserve and Willie's Remedy, and graced the covers of Rolling Stone and AARP The
Magazine. In July 2020, Willie Nelson released his album “First Rose of Spring” - an atmospheric
soulful showcase of beautifully written songs and poignant performances. September 2020
brought a memoir with his sister and pianist Bobbie Nelson titled, “Me and Sister Bobbie: True
Tales of The Family Band”. For 2021, he released a new studio album in February —"That's Life”, his
second album of standards and classics made famous by Frank Sinatra (his first, 2018's “My Way”,
earned Willie Nelson the GRAMMY for Best Traditional Pop Solo Album). The two legends were
friends, musical colleagues and mutual admirers of each other's work. In June 2021, a collection of
his thoughts on America, family, faith and music hits shelves as a new book titled “Willie Nelson’s
Letters to America”. These creative endeavors as well as new songs and performances that add to
his classic catalog, find Willie Nelson rolling at an artistic peak, writing and singing and playing
with the seasoned wit and wisdom that comes from the road.
