Willie Nelson was famously born in the middle of the night, but while he’s traditionally celebrated his birthday over just two days — April 29 and 30 — Willie’s Roadhouse (Ch. 59) is extending the party throughout the weekend! Enjoy one hell of a ride with exclusive programming in honour of Willie’s 88th birthday kicking off on Thursday, April 29th at 5 pm ET.
During the four-day bonanza, hear a new Virtual Birthday Card special hosted by Willie’s daughter Paula Nelson with her brothers and sisters Lukas, Micah, Amy, Lana, Susie, and their 90-year-old aunt, “Sister Bobbie,” plus a conversation between John Spong of Texas Monthly and Dallas Wayne featuring highlights of Season 2 of the One By Willie podcast. Willie’s Roadhouse will also be airing exclusive specials, including the recent ‘That’s Life’ Album Release Special for his latest tribute to Frank Sinatra — featuring Nancy Sinatra, along with producers Buddy Cannon and Matt Rollings — all three episodes of the Willie-hosted From His Roadhouse to Yours, as well as new birthday episodes of Austin Outer Limits with Ray Benson and Sundays with Seely with Jeannie Seely. Fans can also enjoy special birthday messages from friends, family, and fellow artists throughout the festivities!
