Watch Texas’ Randy Rogers Honor Lone Star State Luminary George Strait by Covering His Hit Tune, “Wrapped”

Posted on October 6, 2016

George Strait will release Strait Out of the Box: Part 2 exclusively at Walmart stores on Nov. 18. This three-disc, 56-track collection features 36 hit singles, including 26 No. 1s. The new album also features two brand-new songs, including his latest radio single, “Goin’ Goin’ Gone,” and 18 choice album cuts, all personally selected by George.

Several Texas artists, including Aaron Watson, are celebrating the release of George’s new box set by covering their favorite King George tune.

One of Texas’ favorite sons, Randy Rogers, decided to tackle George’s 2007 hit, “Wrapped,” which was penned by another Lone Star State local, Bruce Robison. Randy recorded his version of “Wrapped” at Bruce’s Country Bunker recording studio in Lockhart, Texas.

Check out Randy’s tweet and a video of his “Wrapped” performance below.
