Bud Fletcher: Who Is Bobbie Nelson’s Husband?

Bud Fletcher was a musician and humorist during the early 70’s with his comedy albums from the outhouse.

He was husband to Bobbie Nelson.

Although back then his jokes were considered risque, today this material is acceptable for television.

Bobbie Nelson was just a teen when she tied the knot with aspiring musician Bud Fletcher, who started a band with her and her brother.

But unfortunately, Fletcher died in a car accident in 1961, leaving her on her own with three young sons.

Fletcher was 34 years- old as at the time of his demise.

After Fletcher’s death, Bobbie began working as a secretary but she did not stay away from music for long and eventually reunited with her brother in 1973.

The pair went on to produce some albums, like ‘Shotgun Willie,’ ‘Red Headed Stranger,’ and ‘The Willie Nelson Family’.

For most of her life, Bobbie worked alongside Her brother, Willie, who is two years younger than her, and she was happy about it.

In 2008, Bobbie, who was 76 years old at the time, released her first solo album “Audiobiography,” which included “ten ragtime standards like ‘12 Street Rag’ and Willie’s ‘Crazy,’ reimagined as a lounge number.”
