Dave Boutette The scent of cedar, maple, and popple smoke hangs on Dave Boutette’s clothes through summer and into fall. So much so, he’s often teased by friends calling him "The Campfire Kid" while they try to make it to dawn around a circle of crackling log wood. Join us in welcoming Dave Boutette and friends back to South Lyon. Last year's performance was a hit - with Dave covering tunes by everyone from Chuck Berry to Harry Belafonte. Dave had our all-ages crowd dancing in front of the stage. Visit Dave Boutette's website to find out more.
