Foy Willing’s Riders of
the Purple Sage
Dust off the Stetson and get your best
calico on as this now legendary
Country Western group hits the Levitt
Stage. Founded in 1943 by Foy
Willing, this group rose to national
attention for their appearances in
several Western films in the '40s and
'50s. Their signature vocal stylings and
authentic sound made them a favorite
of such country giants as Roy Rogers,
Dale Evens and Eddie Arnold.
Over 60 years later, the group is still
going strong under the direction of
Cody Brynt. The sun will never set on
these beloved Son's of the West.
