An all-star lineup of musicians will soon come together for the Sing Me Back Home: The Music Of Merle Haggard tribute concert. The event organized by Blackbird Presents will take place at the Bridgestone Arena in Nashville on April 6 – both the anniversary of the legendary outlaw country musician’s death and what would have been his 80th birthday.

The lineup of musicians appearing at the Sing Me Back Home: The Music Of Merle Haggard tribute show includes Haggard’s friend and collaborator Willie Nelson, as well as The Avett Brothers, Warren Haynes, Loretta Lynn, Alison Krauss, Jamey Johnson, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Lucinda Williams and Merle’s son Ben Haggard, among others. Additional performers are expected to added prior to the show.

Keith Wortman, Mark Rothbaum and Merle’s widow Theresa Haggard will serve as executive producers of the concert. Wortman previously produced events honoring the likes of Jerry Garcia, Johnny Cash, Emmylou Harris, Gregg Allman and Levon Helm. Don Was, Ben Haggard and Buddy Cannon have been tapped as Sing Me Back Home music directors and will lead the house band backing the all-star lineup of musicians.

“I am so very thankful for this tribute to my husband, Merle Haggard,” Theresa Haggard said in a statement. “Please come join me and my family at this fantastic show that Merle would be so proud of.”
