WHO IS THAT CRAZY LUCKY COWBOY?
NASHVILLE, TENN December 4, 2017 LuckyCowboy.com - Ron Wilkinson AKA 'Lucky Cowboy' was born at a very young age in the "Land of Lincoln." Alton, Illinois, to be exact, is where old Lucky is from. Alton is famous for its celebrities of stage and screen. Remember Robert Wadlow, the tallest man in the world? How about TV star Clint Walker of "Cheyenne" and Butch Calvey the singer? Alton is also where one of the famous Lincoln/Douglas debates took place, and where Bluff City Beer was made. It seems Lucky was just destined to be a famous person. In his early years, Lucky appeared at the Madison Avenue Corral in Alton as a live DJ for WOKZ radio. He's been a trapeze artist, a motorcycle stunt rider, and even hosted his own carnival. He was a National Indian Chief for the Boy Scouts of America and managed a scout camp. He received an honorable discharge from the U.S. Air Force. Worked for major companies such as Coca Cola, Frito-Lay, Anheuser-Busch, Minnesota State Lottery and even managed a bar in a cave. Lucky spent some time in Minnesota where he still has many country fans. Nowadays, old Lucky is based in Nashville, TN, Music City USA. Here he founded Lucky Cowboy Productions. Member of the Country Music Association (CMA). You might catch him anywhere in Nashville, or somewhere in the rest of the USA promoting country music. He's even been on the Today Show! Lucky even has his own backyard concert and it's in it's 12th year. But you'll always find him wearing his famous forty gallon orange cowboy hat - you can't miss him wherever he goes. Lucky's favorite song is "I Feel Lucky." His handprints are on the WE Fest "Walk of Fame," and there's even a ceramic bobblehead doll of Lucky Cowboy (2001). Yep, you can bet old Lucky will continue to be a star in his own right. Watch out for The Lucky Cowboy as you might just get "Lucky!" Yeeeeeeeeehaw!!! And he's been playing cowboy since 1992. Happy 25th Anniversary 2017.

FAMOUS LUCKY COWBOY SINCE 1992
RELIVE THE 53rd ACM AWARDS - GREAT SHOW! GREAT NIGHT! JASON ALDEAN ENTERTAINER OF THE YEAR
NASHVILLE, TENN/ LAS VEGAS, NV April 16, 2018 LuckyCowboy.com - During the 53rd annual Academy of Country Music Awards on Sunday evening (April 15), the country music community showed the strength of their resilience, and their commitment to music and to their fans, as the Nashville music community returned to Las Vegas six months after the horrific massacre that took 58 lives at the Route 91 Harvest Festival in October 2017. The ACMs awards show opened solemnly and respectfully. Jason Aldean, who had been onstage at Route 91 when the gunfire started, led fellow stars including Miranda Lambert, Luke Bryan, Maren Morris and Thomas Rhett to open the ACM show with offering words of healing and morning. “We celebrate the music tonight,” Aldean summed, ushering in the show. “America, this is your ACM Awards.” Entertainer of the Year WINNER: Jason Aldean. Female Vocalist of the Year WINNER: Miranda Lambert. Male Vocalist of the Year WINNER: Chris Stapleton. Album of the Year WINNER: From A Room Vol. 1— Chris Stapleton. Single Record of the Year WINNER: "Body Like A Back Road" — Sam Hunt. Vocal Event of the Year WINNER: "The Fighter" — Keith Urban featuring Carrie Underwood. Anticipation was high surrounding Carrie Underwood’s return to the ACM stage, and she proved she was more than ready with a soaring rendition of her new single (and first as an artist on Capitol Nashville), “Cry Pretty.” Chris Janson closed out the show with an extra shot of energy for a harmonica and danced-soaked performance of “The Redneck Life.”
