He will bring his full backup band for the Feb. 6 show set to begin at 7:30 p.m. Tickets are $25 each and are available at the Mineral Wells Area Chamber of Commerce, Bennett’s Brazos Printing, Cole’s Flowers, Century 21, Awards & More, First Financial Bank and Carter’s Bar & Grill, or by calling (940) 325-1205.
