Merle Haggard

Merle Haggard: Country Music Legend

Over a remarkable, 50-year career, guitarist, fiddler and vocalist Merle Haggard has achieved legendary status in the music industry for both his 40-plus No. 1 hits and his heartfelt, incisive songwriting. And while he's won every award imaginable, from Grammys to Kennedy Center Honoree, Haggard continues to perform for both fans old and new with the same energy he brought to the stage decades before. With a 75-album catalog that includes such smash country hits such as "Mama Tried," "Okie From Muskogee" and "I Think I'll Just Stay Here and Drink," Haggard will have plenty to pull from as he lights up Oakland's Paramount Theatre.
