Willie Nelson

Willie Nelson is a famous name when it comes to country tunes. He was born in Texas in 1933. His grandparents made him familiar with gospel songs. He wrote his first song at a very young age. Several years later, Nelson dropped out of college because of his success in music. From the first single Yesterday Wine in 1957, Willie Nelson’s singing career reached an astonishing 40 years. In these 40 years, he has entered the country music chart 81 times.

Aside from his work in the music field, Nelson also ventured in acting and writing songs, which eventually led him to get a couple of chart-topping hits. His album Shotgun Willie catapulted his career to another level. However, after years of spending on the top of his league, his finances took a downfall. We just hope that everything will go back to normal for him and his family in the near future.
