Robert Earl Keen's musical road truly does seem to go on forever, as entailed in the lyrics to one of his synonymous songs. His campy, 1994 "Merry Christmas From The Family" song grew a life of it's own, and became a seasonal tour for the Houston native.
He has an ability to write lyrics that paint mental pictures of everyday people. When he sings, the tone of his voice makes him sound warm and approachable, the kind of guy you'd like to sit down with over one of his signature "Robert Earl Keen Honey Pils" beers. Matt Meinke caught up with Robert before he began this year's "Merry Christmas From The Fam-O-Lee" Tour in Greenville.
