Country Singers From the Lone Star State

Texas is the largest state in the 48 contiguous United States and the second most populous state in the country. It is also the home state for some of the biggest names in country music.

These 15 artist are all still with us and some are still cranking out hit songs!

Buck Owens, Ernest Tubb, Gene Autry, George Jones, Minnie Pearl, Ray Price, Tex Ritter and Waylon Jennings were all from Texas too. They may be gone, but are not forgotten!
