Watch Dwight Yoakam Hoot and Holler on “The Late Show” With Bluegrass Version of “Gone (That’ll Be Me)”

Posted on November 18, 2016

Dwight Yoakam brought a little of his Kentucky swagger to New York City for a performance on The Late Show With Stephen Colbert on Nov. 16.

Dwight, clad in his low-tilted Stetson and a duster, treated the audience to a bluegrass version of “Gone (That’ll Be Me),” a song he penned and originally recorded on his 1995 album, Gone.

Check out the performance below, and props to Dwight for still being able swivel those hips and knees like a young buck.
