…WHO IS THIS GUY, ANYWAY?
Country Music, watch out! Kenny Rodgers meets Lady Gaga in this fast-paced comedy-musical romp, with Eric “Travis” Wilson playing everything from guitar and banjo to drums and piano…and even a Starbucks cup! It’s tall tales, hilarious surprises, and amazing music in the Cowboy Mashup show!
What the heck is Cowboy Mashup?
It’s Travis in his sparkly cowboy suit, singing Black Eyed Peas, Bob Marley, and Led Zeppelin. Then for a change of pace, a little MC Hammer and Shania Twain, and the fun really starts! Travis, as the classic Southern knucklehead, tells ridiculous stories that you may find hard to believe. But rest assured that the rhinestones will be shining, the laughs will be contagious, and you will definitely hear a favorite Hip Hop song as a squaredance tune.
So strap in, grab the bull by the horns, and hold on tight. Cowboy Mashup reduces your favorite popular hits to their raw, uncooked ingredients and fries them up with Country gravy!
