H. Adamson High School with Michael Martin Murphey and B.W. Stephenson. In the 1970s, Hubbard wrote “Up Against the Wall, Redneck Mother,” first made famous by Jerry Jeff Walker’s 1973 recording.  In 1976, he signed with Warner Bros. Records.  The result was “a botched sound” that Hubbard disapproved of vehemently, but the album was released despite his attempts to block it. Throughout the 80’s and ’90s, Hubbard recorded albums for various other labels but struggled with the sales of his mix of country, folk, and blues.  Eventually, a steady following began to re-discover Hubbard’s music, and he has been recording steadily since.  His guitar technique uses a strumming by the left (fretting) hand that is very old but not frequently seen in double time without changing the right-hand beat. Since 2000, Hubbard has released ten records, including ‘Snake Farm’ in 2006.  Most recently, in 2020, Hubbard signed his first major-label release since 1978 on Big Machine Records.  ‘Co-Staring’ is a set of collaborations featuring Ringo Starr, Joe Walsh, Don Was, and Black Crowe’s frontman Chris Robinson. ✅ HOST - JACK INGRAM Jack Ingram’s music career spans over four decades and includes 18 records, 6 top #20 singles, including a #1 hit, on the Country Billboard charts.  In May of 2021, Jack, alongside fellow singer/songwriters Miranda Lambert and Jon Randall, released The Marfa Tapes.  According to Lambert, The Marfa Tapes stems from a fruitful songwriting partnership that has already resulted in the 2018 ACM Song of the Year “Tin Man” (Ingram / Lambert / Randall).  Additionally, Jack is no stranger to the airwaves, as TV host of the Texas Music Scene, a half-hour weekly program that airs in over 70 U.S markets and has won 22 Telly awards and 2 People’s Choice awards. In 2013, Jack teamed up with Academy Award-winning actor Matthew McConaughey and college football coach Mack Brown to create an annual multi-day fundraiser, golf tournament, & concert, Mack I Jack I & McConaughey.  Since its inception, MJM has raised over $15 million for children’s charities. ✅ CONTACT INFORMATION Matt Peveto, Executive Producer • (713) 859-3929 • [email protected]
