Join us at the Pawhuska Western Swing Festival on November 14-15, 2025, and step back in time to the days when Bob Wills and his Texas Playboys brought the lively sounds of Western Swing to Whiting Hall in downtown Pawhuska, Oklahoma. Experience the rich musical heritage and celebrate the enduring legacy of this iconic American genre.
Did you know?
While Bob Wills had his Texas Playboys, and he may have had his San Antonio Rose -- it was Oklahoma that put the smile in his style and the "haw" in his chaw as he sang, "Take Me Back to Tulsa" from Pawhuska, Oklahoma in a little place called Whiting Hall!
Whiting Hall still stands on Kihekah Avenue downtown, and now houses county offices - BUT - the old tiles on the floor with musical notes engraved on them tell of yesteryear when the King of Western Swing walked those floors!
I guess you can take the Hall out of the dance, but you can't take the dance out of the Hall - Whiting Hall, that is!
