Bridwell Library Christmas Concert: Art Greenhaw and The Light Crust Doughboys

Bridwell Library of SMU Libraries and Perkins School of Theology, Southern Methodist University announces a free Christmas Concert for all to attend. The Light Crust Doughboys will perform at Perkins Chapel on December 16, 2021. The concert will begin at 6:00 PM and will be followed by a reception at Bridwell Library.

The Light Crust Doughboys initially began by singing commercials for the Burrus Mill Flour Company in 1931 and later rose to fame as they introduced the genre of Texas Western Swing. The band began with Texas music legend Bob Wills and has changed leadership several times. Since 1983 the band has been led by Grammy Award-winning artist and producer Art Greenhaw. The Light Crust Doughboys celebrated ninety years of music this year, making it the longest-running band in recorded history.
