Robert Earl Keen
The road is ending soon. Legendary Texas songwriter and entertainer Robert Earl Keen will wrap up 41 years on the road with the final leg of his final tour in his home state of Texas on Aug. 4- Sept. 4, with performance in downtown Beaumont on Sunday, Aug. 21., at the Julie Rogers Theatre (765 Pearl St.).
Priced from $75 for balcony, $95 floor and $150 VIP (first five rows), early bird tickets are available Thursday, May 26, from 10 a.m. to 10
p.m. on ticketmaster.com, then go on sale to the general public at 10 a.m. on Friday, May 27.
Keen made his retirement from the road announcement in January with a personal video posted on his social media accounts. “I’ve been blessed with a lifetime of brilliant, talented, colorful, electrical, magical folks throughout my life,” Keen said. “This chorus of joy, this parade of passion, this bull rush of creativity, this colony of kindness and generosity are foremost in my thoughts today. It’s with a mysterious concoction of joy and sadness that I want to tell you that as of September 4, 2022, I will no longer tour or perform publicly.”
With a catalog of 21 albums, his band of stellar musicians, and many thousands of shows under his belt, Poolstar ranked Keen in its Top 20 Global Concert Tours in July, 2021. Keen has blazed a peer, critic, and fan-lauded trail that's earned him living-legend status in the Americana music world.
