“Dukes of Hazzard” star Tom Wopat will perform his annual Christmas in Luray show at Cooter’s Place on Dec. 14.

Wopat has found a second career as a singer and songwriter and is celebrating the 10-year anniversary of his holiday album with co-star John Schneider.

Home for Christmas features 18 songs and was released in 2014.

“It’s hard to believe that we released Home for Christmas 10 years ago. It was probably the most fun I’ve ever had recording an album,” said Wopat. “When you’re working on something you love with your best friend, it’s hard to go wrong.”

The duo is best known for playing Luke and Bo on the hit TV series “Dukes of Hazzard.”

In addition to starring roles on Broadway, Wopat released a new recording project, an album titled Simple Man, a 13-song collection, in 2022.

Wopat will sign autographs and host meet and greets starting at 11 a.m. on Dec. 14-15. Wopat will also perform his full Christmas show on Saturday at 7 p.m.

Tickets to the concert are $25 per person and available in advance. Children under 12 and adults 60 and over are admitted at no charge.
