Saturday August 22 2026 The Red Rooster Icehouse in Hawkins Texas Welcomes: David Frizzell, Grammy-nominated country legend and the voice behind the ACM Song of the Year, "You're the Reason God Made Oklahoma." Doors at 5:30pm Opener April N Smith 7pm David Frizzell 8:30pm DAVID FRIZZELL His life and his career are tightly woven into the fabric of country music history and lore. He is both legacy and legend with an unmistakable voice and a captivating style. David Frizzell is one of the greatest voices in country music with a haunting resemblance to his older brother, the ultimate stylist, Lefty Frizzell. Both share that raw, forlorn quality that is essential to the interpretation of traditional country themes, but David's voice is even more resonant and nuanced; a perfect instrument for conveying the deepest emotion of every lyric. While still just a teenager, David Frizzell left home to perform and tour with his legendary brother, working the concert circuit with many of the mightiest names in country music. By his 18th birthday, Frizzell was recording country and rockabilly albums for Columbia Records. A four-year hitch in the military slowed his burgeoning musical career, but upon his discharge, Frizzell was immediately re-signed to Columbia. David emerged from the significant shadow of his brother to create his own artistic identity. He recorded and charted the first country version of "L.A. International Airport" (months before it became a hit by Susan Raye) and followed that song with a Top 40 rendition of "I Just Can't Help Believing." Frizzell parlayed his recording success into headlining country shows in Las Vegas, a bold move that paved the way for other country acts in Las Vegas. In the early 1980s, Frizzell founded the musical duo of Frizzell & West with the gorgeous and gifted Shelly West, daughter of country superstar Dottie West. Their recording of "You're The Reason God Made Oklahoma" made its way to Clint Eastwood, who insisted on adding the tune to the soundtrack.
