Friday, August 25, 8pm
The Mulehouse
812 S High St, Columbia

Country music’s answer to Weird Al Yankovic, Cledus T. Judd had a similar approach to song parody, recording backing tracks that were as similar as possible to the original versions. Some of his most popular parodies include “Bad Breath” (his version of Faith Hill’s “Breathe”) and “My Cellmate Thinks I’m Sexy” (a parody of Kenny Chesney’s hit “She Thinks My Tractor’s Sexy”), among so many others.

With over a dozen albums released, several songs that have hit the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart, and a plethora of comedy shows under his belt, Cledus brings the funny in a multitude of ways. Don’t miss the hilarity, and maybe even some inspirational moments in between all the laughs!
