About Ray Wylie Hubbard

Ray Wylie Hubbard is touring in support of his new release, The Grifter's Hymnal, which reached #2 on the Americana chart and features Ringo Starr on vocals, guitars and shakers.  More general info about him is below.

Today Ray Wylie Hubbard is an elder statesman of the Texas music scene. From New Braunfels, Texas, Hubbard hosts a Tuesday night radio show called "Roots & Branches". This program promotes new and established Americana artists. Like some other performers in his genre, he is perhaps as popular in Europe as in the US—Hubbard has been invited by record companies in the Netherlands to produce albums. His most recent recordings have been produced by Texas guitarist Gurf Morlix.

Besides the movies, a weekly radio show and constant touring as well as producing other artists,  Ray Wylie Hubbard's focus remains fixed on the song ‐ constructing and performing stories set to music that resonate like no one else’s. Not for nothing is he the dark literary, cat daddy of Americana songsters who was outlaw long before it was cool.
