The Country Music Cruise Presents Ben & Noel Haggard

On The 2020 Country Music Cruise, we welcomed Ben & Noel Haggard, sons of Merle Haggard, onboard for the first time. Today, on the day of Merle's birth and death, we remember the groundbreaking music and legacy of the incredible singer-songwriter, guitarist and fiddler. During his career, Merle recorded 38 No.1 Country Hits, was the recipient of the Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award, and was inducted into both the Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame and the Country Music Hall of Fame. He is, and always will be, one of the best.
