Willie Nelson & Family to Perform in El Dorado

El Dorado – Main Street El Dorado will present “Willie Nelson & Family Live” on Thursday, March 14th at the El Dorado Municipal Auditorium (100 W 8th). The concert begins at 7:30 PM with doors opening at 6:30 PM.

The iconic Texan is the creative genius behind historic recordings like "Crazy," "Hello Walls," “Red Headed Stranger” and “Stardust.” His career has spanned six decades. His catalog boasts more than 200 albums. He's earned every conceivable award and honor to be bestowed a person in his profession. He has also amassed reputable credentials as an author, actor and activist.

In many ways, however, the weighty distinction "living legend" does Nelson a disservice, for it discounts the extent to which he is a thriving, relevant and progressive musical and cultural force. In the last five years alone he delivered 10 new releases, two of which received Grammy nominations, released his debut novel and again headlined Farm Aid, an event he co-founded in 1985, all the while continuing to lobby against horse slaughter and produce his own blend of biodiesel fuel.

As ever, Nelson tours tirelessly, climbing aboard Honeysuckle Rose III (he rode his first two buses into the ground), taking his music and fans on a seemingly endless journey to places that were well worth the ride.

“I can’t tell you how excited we are to have Willie coming to El Dorado for this historic performance. I can assure you that this is going to be an experience you won’t want to miss!” Mark Givens, Executive Director
