Throw on your favorite costume and get ready to party! The Bulltown Strutters are back at FGS performing a fun concert for the whole family!
The Bulltown Strutters are a Durham-based New Orleans style community band. They bring the party everywhere they go with their raucous mix of old-school New Orleans classics and new-school New Orleans funk, powered by a massive horns section and an extra dose of Durham craziness. Let loose and show us your dance moves!
Everyone is welcome to join in on the fun! Costumes are not required but they are enthusiastically encouraged. Please note that they do not provide seating; you are welcome to bring lawn chairs or blankets for seating (if you can resist the urge to dance!)
