As the youngest son of country music legend Merle Haggard, Ben Haggard’s life has been rich with music, so much that he was named lead guitarist of his father’s longtime band, the Strangers, at the age of 15. Since Merle’s passing in 2016, Ben hasn’t missed a beat, carrying on the legacy of his father’s timeless music with brother Noel and the Strangers. While Ben’s voice has hints of Merle’s well-worn gravitas, he puts his own spin on his father’s classic tunes, all of which are taken to new heights by his expert guitar skills.
