Jazz Fest

Topic: Jazz Fest

It's been a busy few days since returning to Louisiana from Knoxville.

The band arrived on Thursday night, flying from Nashville to MSY.

On Friday, we all met up at the Acura Stage for our 12:30 set. Then
we had to sign the Grammy winning CD at the NOJAZZFEST tent.

Then we set up and sound checked at Southport Music Hall. We were the
opener for the subdudes that night. That show went OK and we sold
several CDs.

On Saturday morning, we had a 10:30 set at CC's Coffee House on
Esplanade. We sold several more CDs there and played for about 50
minutes.

Saturday night we played at the Howlin Wolf in Mandeville for a crowd
of about 15 or 20.

Sunday we were rained out at Fest For All in Baton Rouge.

The end of the tour! It's good to be back home and getting some much
needed rest.

Chandler, Arizona

What a strange place Chandler is: a made up resort on the edge of the desert. We were treated quite well by the promoter; everything was well done, from the accommodatios to the dinner to the venue. We also sold a box of CDs, so it was all good. Heading to LAX right now, and it's a beautiful day out there. I'm looking forward to playing at McCabe's: I've heard about for so long that it's somewhat of an icon to me.

2023 and BeauSoleil

We all made it through COVID, thank God.  We are all looking forward to a new year with great adventures.  We do have two upcoming shows in December: in New Orleans on 12/8, at the Lafitte Greenway and at the Hideaway Dance Hall on 12/11.

TN Shines, Knoxville, TN

Date: April 29, 2009 11:54 PM Topic: TN Shines, Knoxville, TN The day started with the Blue Plate Special on WDVX in Knoxville. This was a live broadcast both though the radio and on the internet. This was a good show. The DJ took us to lunch before we had to rush to the Bijou Theatre to do a sound check for Jim Lauderdale's TN Shines radio show. The band got a standing ovation after the short set, which means we need to come back to Knoxville for a regular BeauSoleil show sometime soon! Tomorrow we fly home to New Orleans. Big weekend in SE La coming up!
