Tyler Richton & The High Bank Boys live at the First Avenue Club in Iowa City on New Year's Eve
<p>Ring in New Year’s Eve with Tyler Richton and the High Bank Boys. The evening starts off with dinner that consists of Prime Rib, Chicken Marsala, Garlic Mashed Potatoes, Pan Seared Green Beans and Lettuce Salad. The dinner package will be limited to 200 guests. Doors will open at 7:30pm and the dinner served at 8:00pm with the show scheduled to start following dinner. The stage will be moved to the rear of the club to create a large dance floor. Reserved Table packages available include:</p><p>Table for 2 with Dinner: $85<br>Table for 4 with Dinner: $150<br>Table for 6 with Dinner: $225<br>Table for 8 with Dinner: $300</p><p>Individual tickets with Dinner are $35. There are only 30 individual tickets available.</p><p>Tickets: https://first-avenue-club.square.site/product/tyler-richton-the-high-bank-boys/336?cs=true&cst=custom</p><p>The story of Tyler Richton and the High Bank Boys isn’t easy to put on to paper. The name "High Bank Boys" comes from the body of water flowing through the band's home territory in Deep River, Iowa. The Deep River passes through the town of the same name, but the shallow stream wasn't named for its actual depth, but rather the "High Banks" that contain the river in the town and surrounding area. Known for having their practices in and around the community, the “High Bank Boys” became the perfect name for the sensational group of men that was founded there.</p><p>While shows performed by Tyler Richton and the High Bank Boys are youthful and lively, the four members of the High Bank Boys have more than 50 years of experience playing live music combined. With this kind of dedication and devotion to country music, it's no wonder that the High Bank Boys have become the premier country band in the area. Known for being an excellent dance band as well as making the crowd feel like "one of the guys" when there's no dance floor available, the High Bank Boys are at home playing in almost any kind of venue or event.</p><p>The musical travels of the various members of Tyler Richton and the High Bank Boys have been extensive, both before and through the formation of the current band. Music has taken them from local clubs, to fireman's dances and anniversary parties, and from the largest events and festivals to street dances in the smallest of towns throughout the entire state of Iowa. Tyler Richton and the High Bank Boys have been honored to be the opening act for Locash, John Michael Montgomery, High Valley, Sunny Sweeney, Jordan Davis and Brett Young, among others. Each performance has been a great professional achievement for them, and they anxiously look forward to the next opportunity!</p><p>Their most rewarding experiences, however, are the looks of satisfaction on the faces of their fans during and after another great show. It’s easy to see from their following, that this group of guys and the music they play is genuinely appreciated. Tyler Richton and the High Bank Boys’ repertoire includes iconic country cover tunes, as well as original music that is written and arranged by the band. All this and more makes the High Bank Boys a danceable, partying, crowd-pleasing, energetic band that is entertaining for folks of all ages.<br>While our group makes the music, it's the individuals in the band that make Tyler Richton and the High Bank Boys so unique.</p> 2023-07-14 00:00:00 -0500
