Biographical highlights: formed in 2005 by Katrina evacuees in San Francisco, later establishing themselves as a New Orleans mainstay. The band’s sound is described as Bayou Americana—an infusion of blues, roots rock, country, soul, and New Orleans rhythms with lush vocal harmonies. Their discography includes recent studio and live releases such as Live at the 2025 New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival (MunckMix, 2025) and Custom Deluxe (Color Red Music, 2023), among others. They’ve earned multiple Roots Rock Album of the Year recognitions from Offbeat Magazine, and they bring festival pedigree from Bonnaroo, Outside Lands, Americana Fest, and more.
Upcoming 2025 tour highlights include Tipitina’s in New Orleans (March 28, 2025), The Broadside (May 3–4, 2025), The Blue Note Grill (May 8, 2025), Bayou Boogaloo (May 16–18, 2025), and the New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival (April 24–25, 2025).
