An Evening with Michael Martin Murphey

An Evening with Michael Martin Murphey

For more than five decades, Michael Martin Murphey has carried the spirit of the American West across stages and generations, building a career that spans pop, country, bluegrass and Americana. Best known for his timeless hit “Wildfire,” Murphey’s music has become part of the fabric of American songwriting, blending vivid storytelling with melodies that feel both cinematic and deeply personal. As a key figure in the development of the Texas music scene in the 1970s, he helped shape the sound and culture that defined “Cosmic Cowboy” Austin as a hub for progressive and outlaw country.
Joining Murphey for this special evening is John McEuen, a founding member of the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band and one of the most influential figures in American roots music. A master multi-instrumentalist and driving force behind the landmark “Will the Circle Be Unbroken” recordings, McEuen has spent more than six decades preserving and advancing traditional folk, bluegrass and country music. His collaborations with legends such as Earl Scruggs and Doc Watson, along with a career spanning thousands of performances and numerous award-winning projects, have cemented his legacy as a cornerstone of the genre.
Experiencing Murphey live is more than a concert. It is an immersion into the landscapes, history and emotions that define his songs. Together with McEuen, this performance becomes an even richer journey through the roots of American music.
The evening weaves together beloved classics like “Carolina in the Pines,” “What’s Forever For” and “Geronimo’s Cadillac” with stories that bring each lyric to life. With a voice and presence that remain as compelling as ever, Murphey, joined by McEuen’s instrumental mastery, invites audiences into a shared moment where music, memory and the American West converge. It is an evening where songs do not just entertain, they transport, reminding audiences what it feels like to truly be there.

Pride-Apalooza Drag Brunch
2026-06-13 12:00 - 16:00 | Harken Hall, 514 Madison Station Blvd, Madison, TN, 37115, United States
There’s brunch, and then there’s this.
On June 13, Harken Hall turns the volume all the way up with PRIDE-APALOOZA Drag Brunch — a full-on celebration of Pride that trades quiet mimosas for big energy, bold looks, and performances that don’t hold back. This isn’t background entertainment while you pick at eggs. It’s the main event.
Holding court is the effortlessly magnetic Kennedy Ann Scott, guiding the room through a lineup that knows exactly how to work a crowd. Justine Van de Blair brings precision and polish. Delta Granta leans into high drama. Paris Del’Ray delivers pure charisma. Ivy St. James ties it all together with style to spare. Five queens, five distinct flavors and no filler.
Expect sharp wit, big vocals, and the kind of stage presence that pulls you in whether you came for the show or just thought you did. The Pride theme isn’t just a label here, it runs through everything, from the performances to the atmosphere in the room.
Come ready to cheer, tip, laugh, and maybe spill a drink or two. That’s part of it.
Seats won’t stay open long.
