One of the members of the First Family of Texas Music—and a landmark musician and songwriter for a quarter century—shocked and saddened fans on Monday (9/24) evening when he announced that he’s calling it quits. In a short note to fans, Charlie Robison let it be known that he will no longer be pursuing music, either in the studio or on the stage after suffering complications from surgery that have left him unable to sing.

Playing some of his final shows on the “Unleashed Live” tour with fellow Texas country stalwarts Jack Ingram and brother Bruce Robison at the first of the year, Charlie had been mostly out of the spotlight recently, leading to speculation about his health and well-being.

What a heartbreaker! I was just looking at his website trying to find out when and where he’s playing in the future and was curious why there were no dates. He will always be one of my favorites. Thanks for sharing.

Buddy just sent me that, feel bad for him. Did a lot of dumb things with his music playing the background.

Glad I got to see him at Buck's Backyard this year watching from about 10 feet away.

Good songwriter, he can still do that... Read: Mailbox Money. Plus the family ranch needs tendin' to.

He has always been one of my favorites, and seems to be a heck of an outdoorsman and dang good follow on social media.

This. Fun times.

The good thing with music is it will live forever.

The first artist to get me listening to the genre. Lots of great memories (and things I can’t fully remember) listening to his music.

Kind of a kick in the gut. One of the absolute best. Prayers that his health gets better.
