Ray Benson (Ray Benson Siefert, born March 16, 1951), Lucky Oceans
and Leroy Preston were really just three alterna-culture refugees when
they landed in Paw Paw, W. Va., in the summer of 1969. Their plan was
to form a real live Western swing band, influenced by the likes of
fellow-gonzo-swinger Commander Cody and his Lost Planet Airmen. After
drifting through Washington, D.C., and San Francisco, the band (which
got its record deal when Van Morrison raved about them in Rolling
Stone) landed in heart of Bob Wills country: Austin, Texas, in the
early '70s. With its fondness for jazz, blues, rock and country, the
band was an instant hit with the same folks who embraced Willie Nelson
and the rest of the Outlaws.

                    The band only
scored one Top 10 country hit -- 1975's "The Letter That Johnny Walker
Read" -- but has collected nine Grammys since then. In addition to
two-all star Bob Wills tributes in the '90s, the ensemble offered a
concept album Asleep at the Wheel Remembers the Alamo in 2003. Also
that year, Benson (the only remaining founding member) released his
first solo album, Beyond Time, which earned two Grammy nominations.

Doors open at 7PM, concert starts at 8.
