The Legendary John Conlee Performs at Lubbock’s Cactus Theater Saturday, January 24
Country legend John Conlee is coming to Lubbock.
Conlee has almost four decades of country music under his belt.
From 1978 and 2004 Conlee charted a total of 32 singles on the Billboard Hot Country Songs charts, and recorded 11 studio albums.
His singles include seven no. 1 hits, including “Common Man," "Lady Lay Down" and "Backside of Thirty." Conlee has also been involved with 14 other songs that made it to the top 10.
Even though the song “Rose Colored Glasses” didn’t make it to no. 1, it’s easily one of his most memorable. "Friday Night Blues" is another one that still remains on Classic Country playlists.
Conlee paved the way for new artists and helped carry country music during a tough time in the early 80s. I’ve even heard rumors how he drove his own tour bus, choosing to live a simple life and raise a family.
Conlee will play The Cactus Theater, located at 1812 Buddy Holly Avenue, on Saturday, Jan. 24.
