Wichita Falls CVB

What’s it about?

Two strangers, a man, and a woman board a train at 4:30 a.m. They’re alone in the car, each is married, both are doing the New York Times crossword. Two opposites in an enclosed space, attacking each other’s values but also being swayed and intrigued by them. As the train races on, so do the pencils across the paper and the biting remarks across the car.?

Dinner Stage Performance Dates and Times: August 24th at 7:30 pm, August 25th at 7:30 pm, August 30th at 7:30 pm, August 31st at 7:30 pm, September 1st at 7:30 pm, September 6th at 7:30 pm, September 7th at 7:30 pm, September 8th at 7:30 pm

Zoltan and The Fortune Tellers play ticklishly oddball, original tunes about cheese, love, lemurs, sandwiches, snake oil and much more. Rooted in gypsy swing, ragtime, folk and jazz, the trio brings a healthy mix of fun, family-friendly tunes that will have you on the dance floor in no time. Winding melodies will transport you to carnivals and circuses of far away lands. Zoltan and The Fortune Tellers are on a mission to entertain….they also look and smell good while doing it!

Born in Wichita Falls, James Cook manages to capture the haunting stories from the Red River and bring them to life with every song he touches. Cook has ventured into many styles of music throughout the several years he’s been creating and performing. From Texas Soul, Country, Americana to Rock n Roll, he always aims for what pleases him. For two years he’s traveled with a guitar and suitcase around Texas playing for listening rooms and soaking in the music scenes from different areas.

Fresh off his win in the Rattle Magazine Singer/Songwriter Competition, Cook, has recently recorded at the legendary Fort Worth Sound for the Rattle Studio Sessions. Cook describes the experience as “A collection of music I have wanted to record, stripped down to an acoustic, my wife and myself. Bart Rose gave us a good path and a relaxed atmosphere to do so. Ft Worth Sound had an uncritical energy that allowed us to create this EP”. James is promoting the album and getting the word out on his follow up album, Lullaby for the Rapture, due out late 2016.

Ready to unveil his latest and crowd favorites, James Cook rolls on with a new experienced band ready to bring his sound to the masses.

When we discovered our shared love of Fleetwood Mac’s organic vocal blend and awesome songwriting, building a band was inevitable. What we didn’t expect is how much fun performing such great songs would be!

Join six Dallas music veterans as we explore some of the most powerful and influential music ever made. Our faithful recreation of those beautiful harmonies and signature instrumental tones will take you back to the days when Fleetwood Mac’s hits ruled the radio.

Our continuing fascination with this iconic band lets us bring you a never ending variety of song arrangements, spanning more than four decades of tours and performances. You may never see the same show twice! We love Fleetwood Mac as much as you do, and we can’t wait to share this magical live experience!

Hairball is a Rock & Roll experience you won’t forget. A band puts on a concert – Hairball puts on an event! The lights, sound, video screens, smoke, fire, blood, bombs, confetti, spiders, snakes & monsters (oh my) and the screaming hoards of rabid Hairball fans create an event – an event that hits you so hard, it’ll take a few days to recover! Rock & Roll will NEVER die!!!

Vocalists Bobby, Kris Vox, and Joe Dandy lead the band through a 2+ hour, mind-blowing, and drop-dead accurate homage to some of the biggest arena acts in the world. Van Halen, KISS, Motley Crue, Queen, Journey, and Aerosmith are but a few of the acts fans will see brought to life. The Hairball stage becomes an entirely new rock concert before your very eyes countless times throughout the night.

The motor that drives the Hairball dragster consists of Freaky on the electric bass, Billy on the drums, and Happy on the lead guitar. These Rock & Roll soldiers pride themselves on nailing some of the most memorable licks and chops of all time, while adding their own style and flare that they’ve cultivated over decades of tireless performing. These guys live and breathe Rock & Roll!

2016 finds Hairball celebrating its 16th year of rocking hundreds of thousands of people across the country. Every day it adds more characters, more pyrotechnics, more lights, more sound, more props, more surprises…more everything! While Happy often tells the audience “Today is the first day is the rest of your life!” Hairball performs every show as though it could be its last. Every night is a 100% full-on, no-holds-barred, exciting, chaotic, fiery party that has to be experienced to be believed!

As important to Hairball as the music are its fans. While many bands claim to have the best fans in the world, Hairball actually has! Whether they’re 8 or 85, Hairball fans bring an unparalleled enthusiasm and energy to the show that completes the Arena Rock experience. Hairball knows it wouldn’t exist without its fans, and takes every opportunity to let them know that. Whether it’s a pre-show meet and greet, hanging out at the merch booth, or chatting online, Hairball has a lot in common with its fans and it’s always a good time when they get together.

Don’t confuse Hairball with the countless “’80s Tribute” bands across the country. Hairball is an event; an attitude and expression of music and showmanship that isn’t a retro-flashback. It’s a way of life…and it’s not going away!
