About

The Boondocks bring to life old school country songs you'll know and love, including the songs of Hank Williams, Glen Campbell, Willie Nelson, Kris Kristofferson, Gram Parsons, Merle Haggard, John Prine and Townes Van Zandt.

Anthony Toner (vocals, electric, steel and acoustic guitar), Mark Crockard (vocals and acoustic guitar) and Marcus McAuley (mandolin and acoustic guitar) deliver those beautiful melodies, touching words, soaring harmonies and intricate solos.

Country music is all about storytelling, raw emotions, and that authentic twang that comes from the heart. It's the sound of real life—the heartbreaks, the victories, the small-town moments and the roots that run deep.

The Boondocks strip back those timeless songs to create an intimate and authentic feel, as if you are listening to them on a warm Texas night on a back porch when the songs were played for the first time.

Country's got history, and it can't just be imitated, it's gotta be felt.

Join The Boondocks for a special evening of the very best of real country music.
