The BoDeans are Back!

Tonight @ the Briggs & Stratton Backyard

By Shepherd Express Staff

With the exception of a just a few off years, the BoDeans and Summerfest have been synonymous for the past two decades. That comfortable connection has been one of the few constants for

Waukesha’s native sons during the band’s tumultuous 25-year history. The heartland rockers once seemed destined for certain superstardom, propelled by the unlikely harmonies, sincere lyrics and emotional performances of singers, songwriters and guitarists Sam Llanas (he’s not “Sammy” anymore) and Kurt Neumann, but they’ve since settled into a comfortable career releasing album’s like this year’s Still, which reunited them with producer T. Bone Burnett. Tonight they play the Briggs & Stratton Big Backyard at 10 p.m.
