One of the top names in country music of the last three decades headlines tonight's West Texas REHAB Summer Dinner Show.

Randy Travis is featured entertainer at this evening's event at the Abilene Civic Center.

Travis released his latest CD earlier this summer. He's been making the rounds on the national morning show circuit to promote to new CD.

Travis is expected to tour the REHAB facilities in Abilene prior to tonight's show. He'll talk about the visit with the media later this afternoon.

KTAB's Bob Bartlett will serve as the master of ceremonies for tonight's dinner show.

With lifetime sales in excess of 20 million, Travis is one of the biggest country male record sellers of all time. Thirteen of his prior albums are Gold. Eight have gone Platinum. Two are Double Platinum. Another is Triple Platinum, and 1987's Always and Forever has sold more than five million copies. His other honors include six Grammy Awards, nine Academy of Country Music statuettes, 10 American Music Awards, two People's Choice awards, seven Music City News awards, seven Dove Awards from the Gospel Music Association and five Country Music Association honors.
