Robert Earl Keen takes the Lime Kiln stage on Friday, August 14th in this SOLD OUT show. Doors open at 6pm, the show begins at 7:30pm. This show is sponsored by Houston-Wallace Society.
No two creative lives unfold the same way, and for Robert Earl Keen, the story was never going to end with a quiet retreat. After decades on the road, with 21 albums, countless shows, songs sung by legends like George Strait and The Highwaymen, and honors ranging from the BMI Troubadour Award to the Texas A&M Distinguished Alumni Award, he might have had every reason to slow down. But Keen has always seen the open road as a beginning, never an end.
Rather than closing the book, Keen has turned the page to something vivid, unpredictable, and wide open. A new chapter not so much about winding down as it is about doubling down. And if the last year is any indication, he is just getting started. Keen's calendar is fuller than ever, and the stages are getting bigger. This year alone, he made his Grand Ole Opry debut, joined Tyler Childers for a sold-out performance at the Hollywood Bowl, and helped his longtime friends Turnpike Troubadours bring the house down at Red Rocks Amphitheater. He continues to headline iconic venues across the country, host his Americana Podcast: The 51st State, write a forthcoming book, and currently working on a new studio album.
Race Ricketts
An Olney, Texas native and mouthpiece of the ‘940’ area code, Race Ricketts is a songwriter and storyteller for all seasons. Fresh off the release of his sophomore album ’New Settler’s Reunion’, Race is cementing himself as one of the sharpest young songwriters the state of Texas has to offer.
