Lucky Tubb (honky-tonk)

What:

Lucky Tubb is the great-nephew of country music legend Ernest Tubb. Born in Fort Worth, Tubb was raised from the age of three by his great grandparents C.R. and Margie Tubb. C.R. was also a musician, and Lucky claims his favorite memories include riding in his grandfather’s Cadillac listening to him spin tales about the country music legends they listened to on the car radio. Tubb started his own music career at age 14. As he moved to Austin and began building a following, he is trying to live up to his great grandfather’s dying wish that young Lucky carry on the family name and “make him proud.” I’d say Lucky’s vocals and five-piece format (acoustic guitar, Telecaster, upright bass, fiddle and steel) do just that. Currently he is on tour promoting his latest record “Hillbilly Fever” due to be released May 11, 2010. Local country music veteran Austin Alley opens the evening. Expect a twangfully sweet show, definitely a valid reason to honky-tonk on a Monday night. http://www.myspace.com/luckytubb
