A Hootenanny Christmas

The Bodarks take the stage at 7:30 p.m. Friday, December 17, at a free concert at the Allen Public Library, either live in person and also virtually at allentx.swagit.com  

Described as high-powered “hootenanny,” The Bodarks sprouted up on the North Texas scene and perform ragtime, jug band, and Western swing, but combined with punk. Compared to genre-twisting folk acts like Pokey LaFarge, Old Crow Medicine Show, and The Avett Brothers, their unique style resulted in a nomination as "Best Country Act in Dallas" (Ghosty Awards) and even garnered the attention of America's Got Talent.

The Bodarks’ live performances cross borders as well, “connecting with the crowd and trying to bring the audience on the stage,” says Brett Dillon (KHYI, 95.3FM The Range).

The library is located at 300 N. Allen Dr.  Call 214-509-4911 for additional information.
