Sobre o artista

Merle Haggard (1937–2016) foi um cantor, compositor e guitarrista country norte-americano, nascido em Oildale, Califórnia, perto de Bakersfield, filho de pais que haviam migrado de Oklahoma durante os anos do Dust Bowl. Sua juventude difícil, marcada por pequenos delitos e uma passagem pela prisão estadual de San Quentin, tornou-se parte central de sua identidade artística e deu às suas canções uma autenticidade singular. Assistir a uma apresentação de Johnny Cash dentro da prisão é frequentemente citado como o momento que o direcionou à música.

Após ser solto, Haggard tornou-se um dos criadores do chamado Bakersfield Sound, uma alternativa mais crua e honky-tonk às produções polidas de Nashville da época, baseada em guitarra elétrica e harmonias vocais precisas. Era visto como uma voz da classe trabalhadora americana, com letras diretas sobre dificuldades, patriotismo, amor e arrependimento.

Seu catálogo inclui algumas das canções mais duradouras do country, como «Okie from Muskogee», «Mama Tried», «Sing Me Back Home», «If We Make It Through December» e «Pancho and Lefty», esta última um célebre dueto com Willie Nelson. Sua influência se estendeu por gerações de artistas de country e outlaw country, consolidando-o como uma das figuras centrais do gênero.
