Buddy “Budrock” Prewitt
If you’ve ever seen a Willie Nelson show light up the night, you’ve witnessed the work of Buddy “Budrock” Prewitt—a true SHOWCO original. Budrock got his start with SHOWCO in the early days, running lights for everyone from Iggy Pop and David Bowie to the Red-Headed Stranger himself. He’s still out there, decades later, making magic on the road with Willie Nelson.
Budrock’s not just a legend behind the console—he’s a proud single father of three girls, a pro tourbus rider, and a devoted dog dad (four pups and counting). When he’s not on the road, you’ll find him riding motorcycles—a passion he’s kept alive for 63 years.
From rock’s wildest stages to country’s most iconic tours, Budrock’s career is a testament to grit, loyalty, and the spirit of SHOWCO. Lucky for all of us, he’s still lighting up legends and living the road life, one show at a time.
