The Boss Tweeds
2025-08-02 20:00 - 23:30
​From the hills and stills of Arkansas come the rock and roll wild men, The Boss Tweeds! Part rockabilly, part ‘50s R&B, 100 percent rockin’, audiences cannot get enough of their high-octane performances. Channeling the spirit of Elvis, Buddy and Bo, The Boss Tweeds’ live shows have all the sweat and fervor of a country revival meeting gone nuclear.
The Boss Tweeds formed in 2012 in Mountainburg, consisting of Joe Hamilton (guitar, vocals) and brothers Jody (drums, vocals) and Brad Birchfield (bass, vocals), so they could play the music of their rock and roll heroes.
They soon developed a unique vocal blend (think of the Everlys with an extra brother, plus a powerful instrumental groove). They began creating their own material, and their retro-rockabilly roots became something new, fresh and exciting. That distinctive sound and contagious energy astounded audiences throughout the South and Midwest as the band hit the road for numerous concerts and festivals, including the Johnny Cash Heritage Festival, the Arkansas Roots Festival, the Frisco Festival, Winfest Arts & Music Festival, The Parsons’ Summer Concert Series, and many others. Some of the artists they’ve appeared with include Marty Stuart, Roseanne Cash, Reverend Horton Heat, Arkansauce, Vintage Pistol, Hillbilly Vegas, and the Ben Miller Band.
The Boss Tweeds have released three CDs: their 2012 debut EP, The Boss Tweeds, After The Sun Goes Down:The Sun Sessions, which was recorded at Memphis’ hallowed Sun Studio in 2016, and their latest release, Hot Rods To Hell, a playful, stripped-down rocker featuring eight blistering originals plus covers of Carl Perkins and Bo Diddley, which has gained airplay on national and international radio programs and podcasts.
DC Lawson’s Jukebox Jury said, “Smooth, country-blooded rockabilly replete with crooned backing voices… all is as it should be.” Scott Smith of the Southwest Times Record wrote, “The Boss Tweeds remain fiercely faithful to rockabilly and early rock roots, interpreting well-loved numbers by the band’s music heroes…but it’s their original material that aims to please followers.”

Wanda Watson
2025-08-15 20:00 - 23:30
“The best of two worlds…the rawness of a natural born blues singer with a colorful past and the polish of a maturing talent…delivers every time”. Ronnie Bravo, Austin Chronicle
“A great big heart with a voice to match…sings the blues with passion, authority” Linda Suebold, Southwest Times Record
“A deep-down, soul-touching, blues/rock singer (with a) hard-driving style and from-the-gut voice” Terrell Lester, OKmagazine
“Get ready for a professional, high energy, foot stomping, hand clapping, and soul shaking night of some of the best music anywhere!” Joey Secora, owner of Joey’s, ‘Tulsa’s Home of the Blues’
“Wanda Watson has got to be the best thing to happen to music since Les Paul ran an electric cable through a hookup in a hollow-body guitar”. Todd Webb, Uptown News
“Wanda Watson is a warrior and a magician. She has traveled that long, lonesome road and gained great wisdom along the way. She has survived the dark night of the soul and come out smiling. She sees the world from the highest mountain, with her feet firmly on the ground. Though she seems to be a maniac, she is legally sane and has the papers to prove it. Her laugh can make trees bloom in a blizzard.” Jim Downing, “Tulsa Entertainment Writer”
“I think this gal is great!” Jim Halsey, Music Business Impresario; Mgr., Oak Ridge Boys
Very rarely will you find an entertainer whose style and charisma matches their talent or vice-versa. Wanda Watson delivers on both counts. Hard charging and aggressive on one song; tender and emotionally sincere on the next, Wanda makes every song her own. Any of her devoted fans will tell you her performances make every audience member feel that she is there for them and them alone.
In December 2004 & 2006, Wanda was voted “Best Vocalist” by the Blues Society of Tulsa; quite an honor considering the world-class level of talent that town produces. In September 2005, Wanda and her band were voted “Best Blues Act” by Tulsa World’s coveted SPOT Awards (Oklahoma’s version of the Grammy’s). In February 2006, Wanda was inducted into the 1st Class of the “Old Town Musician’s Hall of Fame” in Ft. Smith, AR. Also in February 2006, she was “Payne County Line Hall of Fame – Blues Artist Honoree for her life’s accomplishments, and for being an integral part of Oklahoma’s rich musical heritage.” In May 2007, Wanda was inducted into the “Oklahoma Blues Hall of Fame” another deserved and noted accomplishment of Wanda Watson’s musical endeavors. In June 2009 & 2011, Wanda and her band was nominated for “Urban Tulsa’s “Absolute Best of Tulsa’s” Blues/R&B” acts category.
She is a definitive blues artist. In a city noted for its top-shelf musicians and singers, Wanda stands out as a true stylist. Whether putting her stamp on original songs or belting out time tested standards, Wanda is a consummate entertainer and crowd pleaser. No other singer gives such emotional and gutsy performances…as her faithful and reverent fans will attest. Expect to be WOWED!

Jesse Dean
2025-09-04 19:00 - 22:00
Jesse Dean was born and raised in a green, rocky hollow a few miles from Winslow, Arkansas, in a house with a piano for every room, walls hung with guitars and banjos, and a tin roof for rainy-day percussion. His skill as a musician is homegrown. He got an early start, picking out tunes on the piano and mandolin as a toddler, and soon had the makings of a one-man band — strings, drums, keys, vocals and the will to walk a long way. He learned by ear, brought up on bluegrass, gospel, soul, blues and rock, and the skill and stylings of his musician father, Keith Yingling. Jesse Dean’s blues-rock originals showcase soulful bass lines, muscular lead and rhythm guitar, vibrating riffs and sultry jams. His sound reflects a blend influences from Mark Knopfler and Gary Rossington to Bonnie Raitt, Warren Haynes and Cake. His are edgy songs of the South, smooth and blue with the sounds of the delta and richly electric with rough-hewn southern rock played solid and clean.
