Description
Join us for a night of folky fun and dance! Chucky Waggs & The Company of Raggs will take the stage with their foot-stomping folk rock bluegrass mix this year. You can take your shoes off or leave them on but you will be dancing the night away. The Barefoot Ball will take place in the Historic City Auditorium Basement with its original wooden dance floor.
Chucky Waggs is a multi-instrumentalist, singer/songwriter and recording artist based out of the hills of Eureka Springs, AR. Chucky Waggs plays a mix of acoustic and electric guitar, 5 string and tenor banjo, dobro, resophonic guitar, harmonica, musical saw and kazoo, while using his feet to stomp out the backbeat on a thrown together drum kit during live performances. Drawing influences from early American roots music, as well as early punk and rock and roll, joining him on stage is his "Company of Raggs" adding to the energy and dynamic of his original material. The result ranges from intimate, often humorous, folk ballads, to all out rowdy stomp alongs.
Opening the night is Jesse Dean. Dean’s edgy blues-rock originals showcase soulful bass lines, muscular lead and rhythm guitar, vibrating riffs, and sultry jams. Jesse 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.
