BIOGRAPHY

The BoDeans are back with their twelfth studio album, I Can’t Stop, a high-energy, American roots album that carries on what Kurt Neumann and a group of blue-collar kids began three decades ago in the Wisconsin heartland. Previous chart topping songs like Fadeaway, Only Love, and Dreams won them Rolling Stone’s readers poll for Best New American Band in 1987, and they were part of a small contingent of bands that inspired a new radio format known as Adult Alternative, Album Rock-Triple A. Their reputation for delivering a dynamic live show garnered support slots with U2, Bob Dylan, Paul Simon, Tom Petty, George Thorogood, The Pretenders, David Bowie, and appearances at Farm Aid, Summerfest, and ACL, among others. They’ve been featured on SNL, Letterman, Today, Imus, CNN, ESPN, and many more. In the nearly 30 years that followed, the band released several albums which embody multiple songs played heavily on radio, in TV shows, and movies and defined a sound that a generation embraced – songs like Good Things, You Don’t Get Much, Idaho, If It Makes You, Closer to Free, Stay, American, and, All the World, which was recently featured on CMT. The BoDeans are now part of a a small group of bands that have managed to survive the ups and downs of the industry, remaining true to their sound and their style, for nearly 30 years. The BoDeans continue to rock around the world.
