Burl Haggard

Burl Haggard at the Riptide features the Bay Area’s self-described “western swing Mama warned you about,” delivering a lively blend of country swagger, swing, and honky-tonk charm in a welcoming neighborhood setting. Known for his playful, rootsy style and rotating collaborations with vocalists like Tarah Williams and Bonnie Sarkar, Burl Haggard brings a danceable, old-school bandstand energy to the Riptide, where the music leans into loose twang, upright groove, and a little irreverent fun.
