BILLY BOB THORNTON & THE BOXMASTERS
Doors open at 6:00 PM
Ticket Reservations Begin 9/29 at 10 a.m. (LIMIT 4)

Formed in 2006, The Boxmasters have recorded an impressive and diverse catalogue of music rooted in their love of a wide array of influences, most notably, 1960s rock and roll. Listeners can hear obvious odes to the Beatles, Byrds, and Beach Boys. Equally important to their sound are The Mothers of Invention, The Allman Brothers, and Kris Kristofferson, among others.

Their latest release, “Pepper Tree Hill” marks the prolific band’s 19th album. The album’s July debut kicked off their U.S. tour in August, bringing their signature retro rock sound to audiences across the country. The Boxmasters have cultivated a devoted cult following across the U.S., Canada, Europe, and the U.K., and have opened for major acts including ZZ Top, Steve Miller, George Thorogood, and Bubbles and The Sh*t Rockers.
