Folk stars to sing happy birthday to Kerrville founder
Rod Kennedy, founder of the Kerrville Folk Festival, will be celebrating his 80th birthday in style, surrounded and serenaded by enough talented friends to rival any festival lineup. The Music from the Heart: An 80th Birthday Tribute to Rod Kennedy celebration is set for Feb. 2 at Austin’s Paramount Theatre. Artists scheduled to perform — and maybe do a little roasting of the birthday boy — include Robert Earl Keen, the Flatlanders, Eliza Gilkyson, Terri Hendrix, Ruthie Foster, Jimmy LaFave, Marcia Ball, Ray Benson and Randy Rogers, with Lloyd Maines, John Inmon, Joel Guzman, Brady Black and Paul Glasse on hand to provide all-star house band support. Proceeds from the concert will benefit the Center for Texas Music History at Texas State University in San Marcos.
