One of our favorite Cowboy Poets, Gary Robertson has been writing about the daily trials and tribulations of the cowboy and rancher for over 25 years. His poetry has appeared in the Chickasaw Times, Capriolas Catalogue, American Cowboy Magazine, and several local newspapers. One of his poems was chosen to be included in the book "Cowboy Poetry: the Reunion" and he is a featured poet on CowboyPoetry.com. 

Gary has entertained audiences at the Colorado Cowboy Poetry Gathering, Arizona Cowboy Poetry Gathering, Santa Clarita Cowboy Festival, Cowboy Hall of Fame, Autry National Center, The Conejo Cowboy Poetry Festival, and Big Bear Cowboy Poetry Gathering. 

Eddie Villalobos rounds out the evening with fine Western song. Eddie is gifted with a wonderful voice and fine guitar playing. As soon as Eddie begins to sing, he has the audience in the palm of his hand. Eddie has entertained audiences at the Autry National Center, Santa Clarita Cowboy Festival and the Visalia Fall Roundup.

Gary and Eddie are the genuine article and we are proud to have them back. This will be Gary's third performance in our backyard concert series here at our home in Altadena, CA, and the second appearance for Eddie.

Please make plans to join us for this relaxed evening of poetry and song. This is an outdoor event.

Suggested Donation $20.00 per person includes BBQ dinner.

About Big Hat Promotions

Founded in 2007, Big Hat Promotions grew out of our desire to contribute in our own small way to the preservation and promotion of Cowboy poetry and music.

Today, the culture of the West is very much alive and rich with artists, writers, songwriters, singers and poets. In the past few years, we have been fortunate enough to have met some of the most talented singers, songwriters and poets that Cowboy poetry and music has to offer. Through Big Hat Promotions, we have found a way to help promote this genre by sharing the top talent with others who may be new to the music and poetry of the West.

To this end, we occasionally host gatherings with singer/songwriters and poets in our home or the homes of others. We invite you to visit our web site throughout the year for updates on our gatherings as well as other related events throughout Southern California. We know that there are many of you also promoting Cowboy music and poetry and we applaud your efforts and hope that you will appreciate our small contribution to keeping The West alive.

Thanks for visiting!
