Jazz Fest

Date: May 4, 2009 11:48 AM
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.

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.

Rhodes on the Pawtuxet Mardi Gras show, Cranston, RI, 2/10/18

We’ve played the Rhodes on the Pawtuxet Mardi Gras show many times. It’s put on by Church Wentworth, who also produces the Ninigret Park Labor Day Festival. It was the 26th year of the Mardi Gras show, and the place was rocking! We played a rousing dance set, and we were followed by Nathan and the Zydeco Cha Chas, old friends and great musicians.

Sellersville Theatre, 2/8/28

It was great returning to Sellersville Theatre! I cannot say how many times we have played there, but I can say that the audience is always great. Not too many danced, so we played more listening type songs, getting used to our new accordion player, Chad Huval. As always, we had dinner next door at the Washington Hotel.  It’s always a good experience there, too: great food and great staff. Playing the Sellersville Theatre was a good start to this short Mardi Gras 2018 tour.
