Fans have answered the call and are set to pack Baylor University venues for two officially SOLD-OUT concerts that feature fast-rising Texas country music star Hudson Westbrook, followed by THE legendary Texas musician, singer-songwriter Willie Nelson.
HUDSON WESTBROOK SOLD OUT AT FOSTER PAVILION!
A son of Stephenville, Texas, and a chart-topping nominee for ACM New Male Artist of the Year, Hudson Westbrook will take the stage before a sold-out crowd of more than 5,700 fans on Friday, April 24, at Baylor’s Foster Pavilion. Doors open at 6 p.m., with the concert starting at 7:30 p.m.
Baptized in Red Dirt and raised on George Strait, Turnpike Troubadours, Parker McCollum, Koe Wetzel and Tracy Lawrence, Westbrook is currently burning up the country charts, recently cementing his place in country music history with his first No. 1 hit “House Again.” As a result, he became one of the youngest artists at the time of their first No. 1, joining only Marie Osmond, LeAnn Rimes, Tanya Tucker, Jessica Andrews, Taylor Swift, Gabby Barrett and Hunter Hayes to achieve that feat.
Opening in support of Westbrook at Foster Pavilion is another up-and-coming artist, Tyce Delk, whose debut single, "Adaline," is making waves as a blues-inflected country ballad vibe that surpassed 1 million streams in under a week.
WILLIE NELSON & FAMILY SOLD OUT AT MAGNOLIA FIELD AT BAYLOR BALLPARK!
More than 6,000 fans are READY to welcome the legendary Willie Nelson back to his alma mater, Baylor University, for a SOLD-OUT Willie Nelson & Family concert Thursday, May 14, at Baylor Ballpark. Gates will open at 6 p.m., with the concert beginning at 7:30 p.m. Supporting Willie Nelson & Family on May 14 will be Maui, Hawaii native, Lily Meola.
Willie Nelson was born in 1933 in Abbott, Texas, a small town along Interstate 35 less than 25 minutes from Waco and the Baylor campus. A U.S. Air Force veteran, he attended Baylor on the G.I. Bill during the spring and summer quarters in 1954, before embarking on a seven-decade-long career as a legendary Texas musician, singer and songwriter. Nelson has earned every conceivable award as a musician and continues to thrive as a relevant and progressive musical and cultural force.
On May 29 – only two weeks after his Baylor show – Nelson will release his 79th solo studio album and 156th album overall, “Dream Chaser.” Baylor is thrilled to welcome Willie home to Baylor and Central Texas!
Full concert amenities, including beer, will be available at both shows.
