Ray Wylie Hubbard in Oklahoma City

Ray Wylie Hubbard, the outlaw country singer-songwriter born in Soper, Oklahoma, brings his gritty blend of country, folk, and blues to Oklahoma City. Known for writing “Up Against the Wall, Redneck Mother,” first made famous by Jerry Jeff Walker, Hubbard has carved a distinctive path since the 1970s, mixing raw storytelling with a life of hard-won experience.

His live sets draw on a deep catalog spanning five decades, including albums like Co-Starring Too (2022) and Tell the Devil I'm Getting There as Fast as I Can (2017). Hubbard often performs with his son Lucas on lead guitar, and his shows are known for their intimate, no-frills atmosphere, reflecting his roots in Texas folk and blues.

Hubbard’s memoir, A Life... Well, Lived, and his longtime presence in the Americana scene underscore the authenticity behind his music. This performance offers a chance to hear a songwriter who has outlasted trends and continues to create with sharp wit and emotional depth.
