Even before Merle Haggard invited young Chris and Taylor onto his bus to “pick a little” audiences knew this duo was special. Fads and styles fade; music and language homogenize; and “special” becomes relegated to nostalgia. But what Merle and audiences found was current authenticity in a country performance. Merle asked them to join his tour and for the next 7 years The Malpass Brothers were his opening act.
Their performance and personalities caught the attention of Larry’s Country Diner and Country’s Family Reunion both RFD TV staples. Those appearances led to their own network show, The Malpass Brothers Show, now in it’s 3rd season.
Whether playing The Grand Ole Opry, holding residency in Branson, or playing performing arts centers across the country, The Malpass Brothers know how to entertain an audience and show why heart-ache and heart-break make for a great country song.
