Just Announced 🧘‍♂️🪕 The Woodbox Gang is coming back to the P.

Saturday, January 23rd, the southern Illinois purveyors of "Trashcan Americana" make their return to Peoria for a night at Kenny's Westside! ☘️

Hailing from the little village of Makanda, Illinois, the gang had been making its own rules since 1999, combining bluegrass, Delta, outlaw, rockabilly, and the aggressive attitude of punk rock into a mix that's entirely their own.

We're talking banjos, mandolins, washboards, musical saws, kazoos, gutbuckets, rusty gasoline cans, and whatever else gets the job done. 🎶

🤠 Special Guest [ TBA ]
📍 112 SW Jefferson Ave | 21+
🎫 Passes & info on our website!

17 YEARS OVERDUE. WELCOME BACK!
