Willie Nelson was born in Abbott, Texas. He was given mail order music lessons at the age of six, courtesy of his grandparents. By high school, Nelson was working as a DJ for two local radio stations. After high school, he managed to support himself by performing in clubs and working as a radio announcer, as well as writing songs for other artists. His first music contract was for publishing at Pamper music. When he began touring with Ray Price as a bass player, his songs became very popular among other artists. He had a break in his career until 1965, but in the late 60’s and early 70’s his sound changed. Suddenly, his country music showed influences of rock and roll, jazz, and folk. Fans loved it. Later, after his move to Atlantic, he had his first number one hit as a singer—the song “Blue Eyes Crying In The Rain.” Nelson has acting and activism as part of his roster as well, but nothing has stopped him from making music throughout the years. In 2009, he produced two albums, Willie And The Wheel, and Naked Willie. The former is a collaboration between himself and the band Asleep at the Wheel; the latter is stripped down, nearly acoustic remixes of recordings from the late 60’s.Nelson has recorded with everyone from Kris Kristofferson to Toby Keith to Julio Iglesias to Snoop Dogg.
