Burlap Wolf King

Sioux Falls based songwriter and performer Thomas Hentges is a veteran of many bands and genres including hardcore punk and metal.  These days, Hentges (stage name: Burlap Wolf King) is very much at home playing music that appeals to fans of folk, alt/country and indie.  The first Burlap Wolf King album, "The Middle," was recorded in Aberdeen and released in 2009.  The release was followed a year later by an honor in the Boston Phoenix as one of the 50 Best New Bands in America.  Burlap Wolf King's most recent release was a five-song EP which he unveiled last January.  It received positive feedback with critics noting that his works are personal and give listeners a clear look into his life.  This concert was recorded on October 25, 2013, at the Dahl Art Center in Rapid City.  Hentges will soon begin work on a new full length album.
