Michael Martin Murphey February 5, 2006

Michael Martin Murphey, the ?singing cowboy poet,? takes the stage at Lincoln Theater on Sunday, February 5. Not only is he the number one, best-selling singer/ songwriter of American Cowboy Music, he?s one of the world?s most respected singer/ songwriters in the Pop and Country-Western field. But he?s a man apart, a man who rides his own trail so resolutely, that the word ?rebel? doesn?t begin to describe his stance. Though he?s remained a lifetime resident and loyal son of Texas, he?s a man on mystical, spiritual quest to capture the soul of the deserts, plains and mountains of America. Murphey?s close friends have always been contemporary artists, like William C. Matthews, Amado Pena, Gary Roller, and Jerry Riness and he has worked with artists such as John Denver, Charlie Daniels, Kenny Rogers and Willie Nelson.
