Their achievements include clinching the 2014 IBMA Momentum Award and delivering three studio albums, a live album, a holiday album, two EPs, and a collection of covers. This close-knit quartet has garnered a dedicated fan base within the bluegrass community.  The origins of The Barefoot Movement trace back to the meeting of co-founders and married couple Noah Wall and Tommy Norris, who crossed paths during high school. Their shared passions ignited an enduring spark that propelled the band through its evolving phases.

The performance is supported by Adams Rib, Green Lake Lawn & Snow, The Heidel House Hotel & Conference Center, and Goose Blind Grill & Bar.  This event is supported in part by a grant from the Oshkosh Area Community Foundation and the Wisconsin Arts Board with funds from the State of Wisconsin and the National Endowment for the Arts.
