BoDeans

Those who have followed BoDeans’ remarkable thirty-year musical career know that their blend of compelling songs and high-energy performances have retained an unpretentious, rock-and-roll loyal following like no other.

Best known for the catchy single “Closer to Free,” the BoDeans blend compelling songs and high-energy performances, and it has earned them a loyal following over their nearly 40-year career.

The band’s accessible adult alternative sound has led to many milestones: the BoDeans were voted Best New American Band in Rolling Stone’s 1987 Readers’ Poll; they have earned support slots for U2, Bob Dylan, David Bowie, and myriad others; and they have a permanent installation in the Midwest Artists exhibit in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland.
