Michael Martin Murphey

Michael Martin Murphey, whose beloved song "Wildfire" celebrated its 50th anniversary last year, will join musicians Dale Burson, John Moore, and Rod Taylor on Friday, Feb. 20 for the 3:30 PM show at the Bastrop Convention & Exhibit Center. The show, originally billed as "Tres Amigos," is now "Tres Amigos with Michael Martin Murphey."

Murphey is best known for his chart-topping hits "Wildfire," "Carolina in the Pines," "What's Forever For," "Long Line of Love," "Geronimo's Cadillac," "Cowboy Logic," and many more, over 35 albums. From coming of age in the Texas folk music scene, to Los Angeles, to Colorado, to Nashville, and then back to his native Texas, his career path has spanned the country. In 1990 he circled around to one of his first loves, cowboy music. Cowboy Songs (Vol. 1) became the first album of cowboy music to go gold since the heyday of Marty Robbins. His most recent album is Live: National Cowboy Poetry Gathering, featuring 16 classic cowboy songs recorded live in Elko, Nevada with historical introductions.
