Known around the world as a songwriter, musician and producer, Radney Foster is revered especially in Texas. After all, he’s from Del Rio, near the Mexican border.
Radney’s new album is his 11th and it’s paired with a book of stories that expands on the story lines in the songs.
He appears at The Mucky Duck in Houston on April 13. You can also see him at Main Street Crossing in Tomball on April 18.
Also, Radney Foster and Darden Smith join each other on stage in Texas in April and June to sing songs, read selections from their books, tell the stories behind both, and make each other and the audience laugh, cry, and get lost in the mystery behind the process of two of Texas’ great songwriters.
