Next year marks the 40th anniversary of BoDeans' debut album, Love & Hope & Sex & Dreams. To celebrate, the band is set to perform a special 2½ hour show that features a never-before-seen video retrospective with songs from their 14 studio albums.
Formed in Waukesha, WI, and led by original frontman Kurt Neuman, the band has an impressive catalog of great rock songs and anthems. Their 1993 LP, Go Slow Down, produced the hit "Closer to Free," which became the theme song for the popular TV series, Party of Five.
Arguably the best rock band to come out of the Badger State, BoDeans are featured in the Midwest Artists exhibit of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Museum.
The group remains popular thanks to its striking live performances, raw energy and incredible songs. You can expect "Good Things" when you go to a BoDeans' concert!
Fun Fact: While some believe BoDeans were named after Jethro Bodine from The Beverly Hillbillies, Kurt Neumann says it's actually a mash-up of Bo Diddley and James Dean, two icons who had a strong rock 'n' roll image.
