Ned LeDoux LIVE at the Navajo 4th of July Fair

Wyoming country sensation Ned LeDoux will make a stop at the 33rd Annual Navajo 4th of July Ag Expo and PRCA Pro Rodeo on July 4th, 2019 at the Navajo Nation Fairgrounds in Window Rock, Arizona. NO ADMISSION REQUIRED; this concert is a complimentary event sponsored by Navajo Gaming Enterprise.

Son of the late Chris LeDoux, Ned released his first full-length album “Sagebrush” in 2017 and has opened for notable country acts Toby Keith, Garth Brooks, Chris Janson, Aaron Watson, Brother’s Osborne and Randy Houser. Currently on tour this summer, he will make a stop in Window Rock at the Sports Center on his “Dance with Your Spurs On 2019 Tour” on July 4th.

LeDoux served as the drummer for his late-father’s band “Western Underground” in 1998 and has since performed all over the country, in saloons and bars to mainstream amphitheaters and arenas. After Chris LeDoux’s passing in 2005, Ned has stepped up to the microphone with a guitar and has done his best as a country front man.

“People always tell me I sound like my dad,” said Ned LeDoux, “and that is the best compliment I could ever get.”

“Sagebrush” has some songs co-written by his late-father, whose songs and ideas inspired Ned to pick up the guitar and write his own music. Songs “Never Change,” “Cowboy Life,” “We Ain’t Got It All” and “Forever A Cowboy” were a father-and-son collaboration with Ned finishing songs his father had left ideas for

“I didn’t want to lean on my dad too much, so it was just a way for me to just fill in some blanks with dad’s unfinished thoughts,” said LeDoux.

He gained the attention of producer Mac McAnally with his debut EP “Forever A Cowboy” in 2016 and agreed to work with LeDoux on “Sagebrush;” McAnally has won Country Music Award’s prestigious musician of the year eight times.

In 2017, Ned LeDoux won “Best Male Vocalist” at the Rocky Mountain Country Awards, which honors the best country music from Colorado, Wyoming, Utah, South Dakota, Kansas and Nebraska. His collection of songs describes his history, from farming and ranching in his native Wyoming to his days as a young musician on the road.

LeDoux is also debuting his father’s songs into his song catalogue and live show, to introduce
his music to music fans who have never heard of his father’s music.

“I think I’ll always try to include at least one of my dad’s songs on all my albums to introduce
new fans to some of the songs they may have missed,” said LeDoux.

Don’t miss your chance to catch some good country music at the Window Rock Sports Center
on July 4th, 2019 at 9 P.M. sponsored by Navajo Gaming Enterprise! Fireworks will follow the
concert.

Biography:

The moment a bull's gate swings open—that's when Patrick "OD" O'Donnell feels most alive. From his early days riding bareback through Arizona pastures to revolutionizing the bull riding industry as President of Bull Riders Only, OD has lived the Western lifestyle he now champions as Founder of Cowboy Lifestyle Network. Growing up in Casa Grande's sunbaked agricultural heartland, he didn't just learn about horses and ranching, he lived it daily, developing the instincts and grit that would later attract 4 million followers to CLN's authentic voice.

After his baseball days at the University of Arizona, OD saw something others missed: bull riding wasn't just a sport, but was compelling entertainment waiting for the right vision. Between 1990-1997, his leadership transformed local rodeo competitions into sold-out arena events that changed Western sports forever. Today, that same pioneering spirit drives CLN's coverage of everything from championship rodeos to the quiet heroism of ranch life. When he's not building the digital home for cowboy culture, you'll find OD supporting Harris Brothers Charity Foundation, leading CLN’s 25-year Christmas Toy Drive for Arizona kids, or sharing his love of horsemanship with special needs riders through Arizona's own Horses Help. Living proof that authentic Western values still have the power to transform lives.
