In a time when rock 'n’ roll was demonized by many Buddy stood his ground and hung on to his principles. In doing so, he rose to the top of the charts in less than two years! Buddy Holly’s brief life has become the stuff of legend. With Buddy – The Buddy Holly Story, writers Alan Janes and Rob Bettinson have created a celebration of that legend which catches the unique mixture of innocence, determination, humor, and charm that epitomized the emergence of rock ‘n’ roll into the American mainstream during the 1950s. History Theatre is thrilled to once again partner with McNally Smith College of Music and the St. Paul Conservatory of Performing Artists (SPCPA). This rock ‘n’ roll musical provides the perfect opportunity for artists and students from all three organizations to explore the origins of the music and dance that we know and love today while celebrating the contributions of a remarkably talented artist who started to change the way America listened to music when he was only 20 years old. By pooling the strengths of these three dynamic St. Paul arts organizations History Theatre will tell a story about an iconic American figure, McNally Smith students will channel their study of contemporary music and the recording industry into a unique performance experience, and students in the dance and musical theater programs at SPCPA will bring the energy and youth of Buddy’s fans onto the stage and into the aisle while getting to work alongside professional artists in both the theatre and music industries. Buddy – The Buddy Holly Story is produced by arrangement with writer Alan Janes. The show has enjoyed enormous success in London (where it ran for 18 years on the West End) and around the world. Buddy will once again be directed by Ron Peluso with music direction from Gary Rue (assisted by Andrew Fleser), choreographed by Jan Puffer, with scenic design by Justin Hooper, costume design by Lynn Farrington, lighting design by Chris Johnson, properties design by Kirby Moore, and stage managed by Janet L. Hall (assisted by Diane Foss). Starring Nicholas Freeman as Buddy Holly; Ryan Janssen, Zach Spicer, and Blake Foster as The Crickets; Charles Fraser and Laurie Flanigan as Norman and Vi Petty; Andrea San Miguel as Maria Elena Holly; Lynnea Monique Doublette and Munyaradzi Tirivepi as Apollo headliners, and featuring Brant Miller as The Big Bopper and Allen Malicsi as Ritchie Valens. The cast also includes Nathaniel Brelsford, Samuel Castillo, Nic Delcambre, Johannah Easley, Lexis Galba, Alicia Trice, Fiona Steen, Lailah Reynolds, Noah Ratgen, Bryan Porter, Mackinnley Moren, Miriah Trim, and Ian Udulutch.

  • BUDDY HOLLY (Charles Hardin Holley) 7Th September 1936 - 3Rd February 1959 LYRICS Coordinated by Robin Dunn & Chrissie Van Varik
    BUDDY HOLLY (Charles Hardin Holley) 7th September 1936 - 3rd February 1959 LYRICS Coordinated by Robin Dunn & Chrissie van Varik. Buddy Holly was born Charles Hardin Holley on 7th September 1936 in Lubbock, Texas. At a young age he learned to play guitar, fiddle and piano. He released only three albums during his short lifetime, before his untimely death in an airplane crash that fateful “day the music died”, 3rd February 1959. However, he had been a prolific writer and a couple of albums consisting of unreleased material and demo recordings were issued posthumously. Buddy Holly was one of the inaugural inductees into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1986, together with The Everly Brothers. The songs are as performed in principal recordings (or demos) by Buddy Holly alone and/or with The Crickets plus those released by other artistes where Buddy was involved. Additionally included, for diehard collectors of all things Holly, are songs where lyrics refer to Buddy Holly or his songs. The bracketed date following the title denotes the year of the initial recording. Where it was difficult to detect precisely what is being sung, queries/gaps or alternative suggestions are included in blue and/or indicated by ??. Details of backing musicians are shown both for the pre and posthumous releases. Reference to The Picks 1980s/90s additional overdubs is omitted. Some very obscure titles have been discovered; information is wanted - dates and any recordings. NB: the notes are from various, sometimes contradictory, sources. In many instances Norman Petty (25th May 1927 - 15th August 1984) is included as a co-composing credit.

  • The Geographic Dimensions of Buddy Holly's Meteoric Career
    Romig: "Not Fade Away" “Not Fade Away”: The Geographic Dimensions of Buddy Holly’s Meteoric Career Kevin Romig 8 Produced by The Berkeley Electronic Press, 2011 1 Buddy Holly and radio host, Red Robinson, October 1957. Courtesy Red Robinson. Journal of Texas Music History, Vol. 11 [2011], Iss. 1, Art. 3 The career of native Texan Buddy Holly is often described as “meteoric.” Within 18 months of his frst hit,“That’ll Be the Day,” which charted on the Billboard Top 40 list in 1957, Holly released seven other songs that made the Billboard Top 40.1 He and his band toured extensively throughout the United States, Canada, Australia, and Great Britain, while many contemporaries, such as Elvis Presley, did not tour much, if at all, outside of the 9 United States. Holly quickly established himself as a rock and roll pioneer before his untimely death in an airplane crash on February 3, 1959, while on tour in the American Midwest.2 Holly was only 22 years old when he perished on the ill-fated fight along with fellow pop stars Ritchie Valens and J.P. “The Big Bopper” Richardson.3 Holly, his band members, and his manager/recording engineer, Norman Petty, had worked tirelessly during the mid- to late 1950s writing and recording new material. Holly’s innovative and driven approach to producing catchy tunes placed him frmly within the upper echelon of rock and roll artists at a time when the market was crowded with aspiring musicians. Te bespectacled and somewhat awkward-looking Holly was perhaps an unlikely candidate to become a teen idol, especially considering that he was following in the footsteps of such stars as Elvis Presley, Chuck Berry, and Jerry Lee Lewis.

In a more recent and acclaimed recorded tribute to Holly, Jackson Browne noted when doing his album track, “True Love Ways” for the album “Listen To Me: Buddy Holly”, that Holly’s death on February 3, 1959 “was not the day the music died; it was the day the music became immortal.” True to the enduring spirit of Holly’s music and his legacy, Songmasters, in collaboration with Buddy Holly Guitar Foundation, will auction the one and only “Listen To Me” Holly Guitar through MusiCares to benefit the GRAMMY® Foundation’s Grammy Camps as part of the Person of the Year Award celebrations on February 10th. This item in the pre-event auction is expected to generate great interest among rock aficionados, guitar collectors and music curators while it raises funds to support the artistic growth and professional development of young musicians and industry innovators. Only a limited number of these unique, hand-built re-creations of Buddy Holly’s customized Gibson J-45 acoustic guitar and hand-tooled leather case exist.

  • Buddy Holly Hall of Performing Arts and Sciences
    Buddy Holly Hall of Performing Arts and Sciences HISTORICAL COMMUNITY INVOLVEMENT • The Lubbock Entertainment and Performing Arts Association (LEPAA) was created on March 26, 2013, with the stated mission of raising funds for the construction of a performing arts center in Lubbock, Texas, with the goal of the construction to begin within three years of 2013. • LEPAA’s formation is the result of numerous community-driven initiatives to create a performing arts center spanning a 31-year period. They include: o Municipal Arts Committee of City Council, 1984 st o Goals for Lubbock – A Vision into the 21 Century, 1995 o Mayor- Appointed Millennium Advisory Committee, 1998 o 2005 Community Goals, referencing 1985 goals o Downtown Revitalization Plan, 2005 (available for review at www.ci.lubbock.tx.us) o Mayor’s Lubbock Entertainment and Arts Facilities Task Force, 2001-2002 o Civic Lubbock’s Cultural Coalition Task Force Report, 2011 o Imagine Lubbock Together conducted by ACP Visioning and Planning from New York, NY, 2013 • In June 2014, Maria Elena Holly gave LEPAA her permission to use her late husband’s name in the title of this performing arts facility, free of royalty, as Buddy Holly Hall of Performing Arts and Sciences (BHH). • In March 2016, the City of Lubbock approved 1300 Mac Davis Lane as the address for BHH. ORIGINAL FACILITY PLANS 2012 • Initial plans in 2012 included 120,000 square feet, at a construction budget of $85 million. Similar to other performing arts venues across the country, an annual operating loss of nearly $950,000 was anticipated. To compensate for this expected annual shortfall, LEPAA planned to raise an additional $30 million for an endowment, bringing the funding requirement to $116 million.
