Kris Kristofferson is a country music legend, there is no doubt. He’s responsible for hits including "For The Good Times", "Help Me Make It Throught The Night", and belonged to the country music supergroup The Highwaymen.

Not long ago, Kristofferson was honored by the music industry in a most fitting way. In March of 2016, Nashville’s Bridgestone Arena hosted a tribute concert for Kristofferson, entitled The Life & Songs of Kris Kristofferson.

Musicians from across the land came to perform at the concert. Notable artists such as Lady Antebellum, Dierks Bentley, Roseanne Cash, Willie Nelson, Trisha Yearwood and Eric Church performed. Even Kristofferson himself took the stage.

Kristofferson is not just a Grammy Award-winning musician. He’s also enjoyed a successful film career/ He won a Golden Globe for his work with Barbara Streisand on the film A Star Is Born, and has appeared in over 100 projects.
