Merle Haggard Tickets Merle Haggard (born April 6, 1937 in Bakersfield, CA) is an American country music singer, guitarist and songwriter. Emerging from prison in the 1960s, Merle Haggard was one of the early innovators of the Bakersfield Sound. With his hard biting electric guitar, he almost single-handedly introduced country to the electric sound. By the 1970s, he was aligned with the growing outlaw country movement, and has continued to release successful albums through the 1990s and into the 2000s. His work in familiar country themes - jail, betrayal, drinking and wandering - include a directness that reflects his own life experience. His deep, grumbling voice and his guitar work gives his country a blues-like quality in many cuts. Merle Haggard Tickets available now!

Merle Haggard released a series of successful singles in the early 1960s, including "Just Between the Two of Us" (duet with Bonnie Owens) and "(My Friends Are Gonna Be) Strangers", both songs written by Liz Anderson. He then signed to Capitol Records and released "I'm Gonna Break Every Heart I Can" to limited sales. In 1966, however, his second Capitol single, "Swinging Doors", was a Top Five hit and Haggard had become a nationally known superstar. During the late 1960s, Haggard's chart success was consistent and impressive. "The Bottle Let Me Down", "The Fugitive", "Branded Man", "Mama Tried", "Sing Me Back Home", "Hungry Eyes," "The Legend of Bonnie and Clyde", and "I Threw Away the Rose" are among the more well-remembered titles. "Mama Tried" and "Killer's Three Theme" sung by Merle Haggard were part of the soundtrack to the 1968 film Killers Three, which also included his acting debut.

During the early to mid 1970s, Merle Haggard's chart domination continued with songs like "Someday We'll Look Back", "Carolyn", "Grandma Harp", "Always Wanting You" and "The Roots of My Raising". He also wrote and performed the theme song to the TV series Movin' On, which gave him a further top-ten country hit. The 1973 recession anthem "If We Make It Through December" cast Merle Haggard back to being a champion of the working class. He was inducted into the Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame in 1977.

In October 2005, Merle Haggard released his newest album, Chicago Wind, to mostly positive reviews. The album contained an anti-Iraq war song entitled "America First", in which he laments the nation's economy and faltering infrastructure, applauds its soldiers, and sings, "Let's get out of Iraq, and get back on track". In 2006, Merle Haggard was back on the radio, in a duet with Gretchen Wilson, "Politically Uncorrect".
