Live music in our Outdoor Bier Garten! RBB is excited to announce another collaboration with Jams of Enchantment! Join us in our Outdoor Bier Garten for a special show by Boxcar Bandits! This North Texas Skunkgrass power trio and friends, is homegrown in Denton, TX since 2006. Equally at home at a beer joint or concert hall, back porch or street corner, the group melds bluegrass, old-time, western swing and country with the sounds of string band instruments to create their signature Skunkgrass sound. Boxcar Bandits’ first album, “Smells Like Grass” was released in 2008, and a live set, “Live at Dan’s Silver Leaf”, was released in 2011; both are available on Break-a-Pick Records. They are currently at work in the studio for their third album, “A Tribute to Doc Watson.” Since 2010 Boxcar Bandits have had a Monday night residency in Denton, most recently at Mulberry Street Cantina. The band continues touring throughout the southern half of the United States. The band has also opened for such acts as Junior Brown, John Cowan, Greensky Bluegrass, Mountain Sprout, Packway Handle Band, Milkdrive, and Cornmeal. In the Fall of 2012, the Boxcar Bandits were nominated for a Dallas Observer Music Award in Best Roots/Americana category.
