The show starts at 7:30 p.m. Tickets are still available on the Buddy Holly Hall website, and the venue announced the date on Facebook.
Black broke through in 1989 with his album Killin' Time. He was born in New Jersey and raised in Texas, and he taught himself harmonica, strapped on a guitar and climbed the charts his own way.
His best-known songs include A Better Man, A Bad Goodbye, Like the Rain, When I Said I Do and A Good Run of Bad Luck.
For anyone who grew up on 90s country, this puts a headliner from that era on a Lubbock stage. Black has stayed in the conversation for decades through several tours, some with his wife and daughter, plus a book he wrote himself. The KFYO writer who covered the announcement called it a dream come true for longtime fans, even those who came to his music late.
