This year Downtown Wichita Falls Development is excited to present Grammy nominated and Wichita Falls' very own Bowling for Soup! Formed in 1994 in Wichita Falls, the quartet has toured internationally, has world wide record sales in the hundreds of thousands, and we are so excited they are returning to Wichita Falls for this year's event!
Supporting acts for Bowling for Soup will be bigloo, No Limits, and kicking off the event in true Irish spirit is Martin Byrnes! Coming in from Ireland for the festival, Byrnes will perform a mixture of Irish ballads and traditional music.
Inside the Iron Horse Pub will be a St. Patricks Day Festival favorite, A.A. Bottom! A.A. Bottom is a hard rocking, well versed band that plays the Texas bluesy southern and classic rock with style and class. It's Texas rock and roll at it's best. Joining them will be Erick Willis, a rising musician from Henrietta, Texas. Taking cues from the music he was raised on Erick is blending soulful melodic lyrics with the deep groove of roots-rock. Erick is bringing lots of soul to the mix along with undeniably Texas inspired lyrics.
All profits generated from this event benefit Downtown Wichita Falls Development, a non-profit organization. Their sole focus is improving the downtown area in order to make it a destination for residents to live, work and play.
