That Son of Merle Family Is a Proud Legend In the making i wish he'd keep more Going on and Carry on that Mans Name And Hold it Soo Proud like A Medal to his Chest . That so g Brings back soo many memmories. I miss today in this Tough Crazy Twisted Thing of a World. Thank God for letting us see Angels among us ! That inspire and Bring Our Hearts and Minds Joys and Reminise the Clarity of Sarrows which Tugg and Struggle in our Hearts and Minds. Honoring our Loved ones and Our Gellow Man. If only More people could Think of how important some people Bri g inspiration to others in such ways.

[@haggardly79]

tons of talent !

[@dowdysc]

I remember seeing you with your Dad in Huntsville, Alabama. Jeff Cook from Alabama played that night with the band. Didn't know much about you then, but you are a great musician, and you have a wonderful voice.I saw the video of you and Noel singing together and then you singing It's All in the Movies. That was a great performance. Not sure what Nashville is looking for these days, but you should be a star Ben Haggard. Hope to hear more from you soon.

[@garydaltonolecountrymusic2711]

Good stuff brother. Wish I could sit down and play some of your dads songs. Been playin for years.

[@lisabertagna4721]

Lovely rendition ❤ your vocals have come so far! ❤ Watching you grow into a man with mature vocals has been a true pleasure❤ BEN HAGGARD ❤😇❤

[@TERENCENAFF]

Ben you are blessed with the voice and talents of your old man and after a few years of being on the road being hurt by people you trust you will develop your writing Skills from the pleasures and pains don't worry about what people say do what feels good to you and say what needs to be said and what you feel. I am really gonna miss your dad but you are helping me just by doing what I've seen on KZbin. I have listened to Merle, Willie, Waylon, George Jones and Strait since all the Outlaws were on the road in the 70's passing through towns and leaving their Legendary trail across the globe. Spend as much time with Willie as you can and make him tell you stories there are a lot of songs unwritten there ... Always remember your heart is a great place to start...

[@broganmoffet7173]

[@TheQuickblaze]

Awesome!!!

[@SuperScooter126]

Neat sounding tune

[@idaberrones4834]

Beautiful job

[@jerryesters3050]

wow!

[@lost94133]

One the few children of a master that can actually sing Shooter Jennings is a prime example of someone that would be washing dishes if not for who he is

[@Playsitloud1]

I disagree! Hank 3 is but shooter has some real Jams that I love. Do go expecting to hear daddy and you wont be disappointed. Shooter also writes his own music.

[@RainShadow22]

My heart!!

[@zaryangupta]

THE BEST BRAND

[@VampireWeekendWills]

sings just like daddy

[@michaellunburg8567]

Ben, don’t change the lyric. You said 24 years old, and later, after 20 years of picking. So, you were 4? You are a great country talent.

[@davidjohnson-fo7ze]

He probably started at 2. His dad was MERLE HAGGARD! ASS

[@dennisw5591]

I have absolutely no doubt he had one of his daddy's guitars in his hand by the age of 4. Early vids on his channel show him playing like a pro in his teens.

[@brynnrains2946]

Yeah he started in his dads band as the lead guitarist at the age of 15.

[@darinkelley116]

Nice job

[@denisehedden13]

Hey Ben that was Beautiful. You've a wonderful singer. Thank you for posting this video. 🕸🦋🕸🌻🕸🕊❤

[@jimmycollette9209]

[@rogerhache7373]

Daddy Merle would be proud.👍

[@matthewtimpf2908]

Amazing

[@wayne-brock7515]

The only two Country Singers I love is none other than Joe Nichols and Ben Haggard of today's.

[@davidjessee7701]

Soo good

[@StevenCryar]

No DNA test needed.. holy hell he's great

[@darlenepringle5782]

That's because this is Ben!😂

[@anelladambrosio2513]

[@CarlWilkerson-ce5ue]

It’s Merle Haggard’s baby boy Larry, one of four that plays in the band

[@EddieLeeGrovesMusic]

Nice!!!

[@darrenskinner5928]

[@mrbooker3162]

Ben. Can you please tell me what kind of hat your dad was wearing when he did this song. I can't find one like it on the internet. Thanks. RIP brother Merle.

[@revkelly85]

A. cord he had me

[@thomassmith878]

Chip off the old block. Awesome 😊

[@AustinRogers1]

What model Fender is this?

[@AlexMorganGuitarMan]

Damn if he don't favor his dad.

[@Jao-crf]

*BRABO*

[@joeyarsenault8444]

he is his daddy

[@revkelly85]

Your Dad always told me he liked to play this one at sound check. In order to see what condition his band was in . I asked him why. He said why not Kelly?

[@revkelly85]

I know you understand that. Ben I am prpud of you! Your Dad is very proud. Give mom love from me!

[@tamhassinger]

Looks and sounds just like his daddy..

[@JLHill91]

Awesome ass job.
