The Stark Experiment

The Stark Experiment featuring Tod Stark will be performing on the Main Stage on Saturday,
Apr. 13, from 7-8:30 p.m. during the 2024 Louisiana Railroad Days Festival.


Tod Stark of The Stark Experiment is from DeQuincy. He is the son of Sondra Stark – owner
of Sondra Stark School of Dance. At the age of 8, Stark grew up playing high school dances
and then touring Honky Tonks, Festivals, and Concerts all over the USA. Playing Rock,
Blues, and Country. His favorite style of music is Louisiana Swamp Pop! “It reminds me of
playing the VFW dance halls that were always packed all across southern Louisiana”


“Music has definitely taken me on an amazing ride all over the USA and Europe doing
shows with Hall & Oates, Creedence Clearwater Revival, Joe Walsh, Three Dog Night, Tracy
Byrd and Mark Chesnutt. But I have to say my most favorite show that I have ever done was
playing the drums for Chuck Berry in 1995. Now that was a very special moment!”


“I am very looking forward to being home and seeing family and friends. The band that’s
with me are world-class pros with special guitarist, Todd Howard of The Granger Smith
band and from Los Angeles, my actor brother Craig Stark.


“Thanks again for having me at the 2024 DeQuincy Railroad Festival! I Love DeQuincy!
