The BoDeans And Guests Play The Boulder Theater 10/10

BoDeans w/ guests Saturday, October 10 at Boulder Theater, doors 7:30pm, show 8:30pm

Nearly three decades ago, the BoDeans were formed when Kurt Neumann and Sammy Llanas initiated a unique singing and songwriting partnership in Waukesha, Wisconsin. As frontmen for what would become one of America's premier roots-rock bands, the duo forged a Signature Sound based on heartfelt lyrics, passionate harmonies, and ringing guitars.

The distinct sound of the BoDeans first emerged on their critically acclaimed debut, "Love & Hope & Sex & Dreams," which also saw production by T-Bone Burnett. The album reached 115 on the Billboard charts and quickly propelled the group into the national spotlight. This initial success for the BoDeans would soon be surpassed by their 1987 release, "Outside Looking In," which broke into the Billboard Top 100. A tour with U2, an appearance on Robbie Robertson's self-titled debut solo album, and being named "Best New Band" by Rolling Stone magazine that same year only added fuel to the group's already-blazing fire.

The BoDeans went on to release yet another Top 100 best-seller, 1989's "Home." The record was followed by "Black And White" in 1991, and by 1993, there was an urge for the group to return to their roots. The BoDeans decided to re-enlist T-Bone Burnett for the production of "Go Slow Down," which ultimately yielded the "Party Of Five" theme song, "Closer To Free." In 1996, around the time their sixth studio album, "Blend," was released, "Closer To Free" found a home in Billboard's Top 10. The song catapulted the BoDeans to even greater heights, and earned an ASCAP award for being one of the most played songs at radio that year.
