Get ready for an unforgettable evening of classic country hits and soul-stirring gospel tunes as the legendary Gene Watson brings his timeless voice to the Niswonger Performing Arts Center stage on April 11 at 7:30 p.m.! From his chart-topping soulful gospel albums to his No. 1 country standards, few artists have left a more indelible mark on America’s musical landscape than Gene Watson.

A road warrior and considered one of the finest pure country singers of his generation, Watson offers up one of the best traditional country shows in the business. This masterful country stylist from Houston, Texas, known as “The Singer’s Singer,” has more than 75 charted titles, 23 Top 10 hits, six No. 1 country singles and five No. 1 gospel hits. Watson is also a member of the Grand Ole Opry, the Texas Country Music Hall of Fame and the Houston, Texas, Music Hall of Fame. Fans are still transfixed whenever Watson performs classics like “Farewell Party,” “Fourteen Carat Mind” or “Love in the Hot Afternoon.”

Gene Watson says, “I have been on top. And I’ve been just as low as you can go.” All of those ups and downs have kept Watson always searching for his next project and never giving up. He concludes, “There’s a tremendous number of people around the world who continue to come out to hear some fiddle and steel and songs about heartbreak and real life,” Gene says. “I think there is still such a hunger out there for traditional country music. So I’d like to stay out there as long as I’m able to do the job and do it well.”
