About
A Texas household name since 1969, Asleep at the Wheel has garnered 9 Grammys and has had 20 singles on the Billboard charts since its inception. After forming in West Virginia, the band was immediately asked to open for Alice Cooper, which grabbed the attention of Commander Cody and his Lost Planet Airmen, who invited the country swing act to collaborate with them in East Oakland. Less than a year later, after releasing a debut album that Van Morrison raved about in Rolling Stone Magazine, Willie Nelson convinced the band to relocate to Austin, TX and Asleep at the Wheel has remained there ever since. Though the group has gone through multiple members during its 50 year run and might not have quite as much fame now as it did in its early days, Asleep at the Wheel continues to produce music, collaborate with WIllie Nelson and even write and produce a play to commemorate the 100 year anniversary of Bob Wills' birth.
