Robert Earl Keen Announces Spy-worthy Holiday Shows

Robert Earl Keen’s Merry Christmas From the Fam-O-Lee Secret Santa Christmas

November 9, 2020 – Robert Earl Keen announces the launch of his ninth annual Christmas show, Robert Earl Keen’s Merry Christmas From the Fam-O-Lee Secret Santa Christmas with performances at The Ryman in Nashville, The Moody Theatre in Austin, and Billy Bob’s in Fort Worth. Tickets go on sale Friday, November 13, at 10:00 AM CST. Fans of this irreverent holiday tradition know that Keen selects a unique theme each year celebrating music around subjects which have ranged from the Apollo Moon landing to 70s Outlaw Country. This year the theme is well, “a secret.” When asked for a hint, Keen responded, “The magic of the holiday season is the element of surprise, and this year we have a surprise for you. All I can say is there will be plenty of ‘bonding’ moments, so keep your sunglasses handy and bring your decoder ring. Prepare to be shaken not stirred. The rest? Well, it’s a secret.” Come hear what musical gifts Robert and his band plan to unwrap in this Secret Santa set. As always the evening will include fan favorites and some holiday delights in this family-friendly night of music. Concert-goers should grab their tickets for these socially distanced, limited-capacity events as they are sure to sell out. The show at the Ryman will include an online streaming ticket option.
