Meet the Band: Bode Barker

Bode plays live at Cadillac Dance hall in July of 2022.

 

Known as the Best little dance hall in Texas, Cadillac Dancehall has a storied cowboy history on Dos Conchas Ranch, bringing country music and an old-time hill country experience to thousands every year. Hosted by house band Eddie Shell and the Not Guilties, they invite country and dancehall legends monthly. The performance delights Marble Falls crowds (and beyond!), entertaining with a large repertoire of country, Rock n Roll, a little blues and R & B - and even a few Eddie Shell originals.

We’d like to introduce the talented members of the band. Meet our keyboardist and lead vocalist, Bode Barker.

A multi-talented multi-instrumentalist, Bode brings his extensive knowledge of traditional country music and delights the dancefloor every show. And we’re lucky to have him; a highly sought-after addition to country concerts and dance halls throughout Texas, he also plays keyboard for the Llano Country Opry Shows, has been featured on the popular RFD television series TruCountry and was a member of the late Bobby Flores’ Yellow Rose Band (pianist/vocalist). "Bode is one of our most popular aspects of the Llano Country Opry.," Opry MC Tracy Pitcox said. "He is always ready to deliver some fine country music to our fans.”

 

This small-town Texas boy is as diverse as he is talented, playing keyboard, drums and guitar as well as vocals. While his musical core remains within the traditional country style, he has a few surprises up his sleeve. "I am definitely hard core Country, " Barker recently said. "But plaving as many different engagements throughout the last twenty years has allowed me to appreciate different forms of music as well.” We’re lucky to have him. Come say hello to Bode and the whole band every last Saturday of the month at Cadillac Dance hall.
