    The Grand 1894 Opera House presents Riders in the Sky, Sunday, February 7 at 3pm.

    The multi-Grammy Award-winning group Riders In the Sky - the world’s premier Western band - will take the stage at Galveston’s Grand 1894 Opera House on Sunday, February 7, at 3 pm. Sponsored in part EIM Controls, “America’s Favorite Cowboys” are firmly grounded in the rich music traditions of such legendary western singers as Gene Autry, Roy Rogers, and the Sons of the Pioneers.

    Riders In The Sky are truly exceptional. By definition, empirical data, and critical acclaim, they stand “hats & shoulders” above the rest of the purveyors of C & W – “Comedy & Western!” For thirty years, Riders In The Sky have been keepers of the flame passed on by the Sons of the Pioneers and Autry and Rogers as they revived and revitalized the genre. And while remaining true to the integrity of Western music, they have themselves become modern-day icons by branding the genre with their own legendary wacky humor and way-out Western wit, and all along encouraging buckaroos and buckarettes to live life “The Cowboy Way!”

    The group is incomparable in the sense that their music and accomplishments are of superlative standards (they are the only exclusively Western artists to have won not one, but two Grammys). And when you add in their unique style of humor – this group will have you laughing and yodeling right along with them.

    Riders In The Sky… the never-ending trail drive comes to The Grand! Don’t miss it!
