About
Buck Owens was born in Sherman, Texas. He was an American guitarist, singer, songwriter and band leader who had 21 No. 1 hits on the Billboard country music charts with his band the Buckaroos. While Owens originally used fiddle and retained pedal steel guitar into the 1970s, his sound on records and onstage was always more stripped-down and elemental, incorporating elements of rock and roll. Beginning in 1969, Owens co-hosted the TV series Hee Haw with Roy Clark. He left the cast in 1986. He is a member of the Country Music Hall of Fame and the Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame.
