Live Music Schedule
Friday Night - Anders Osborne (click to buy tickets)
with The Dirty Hands Band and Marcos Mendez & Two Dollar Ransom
The Swedish born Osborne has traveled much of the world but honed his music in New Orleans, where he's frequently performed at the Jazz and Heritage Festival.
His mix of blues, soul, funk, and R&B draws fans across all genres. Osborne's songs have been covered by everyone from Jonny Lang to Kim Carnes and his tune "Watch the Wind Blow By" was a #1 hit for country singer Tim McGraw.
With deeply soulful songs and thrilling guitar work, this blues troubadour has been called "one of America's finest roots music artists." Not bad for a guy who came to this country's shores searching for the blues just three decades ago.
Saturday Night - Amanda Shaw & The Cute Guys (click to buy tickets) with Dan Hubbard & The Humadors and Blackwater FOE
Amanda Shaw released four CDs before her 21st birthday, yet this New Orleans-based fiddler and singer "…has a reservoir of restless energy to spare" (USA Today).
Her eclectic taste – her band plays traditional Cajun dance music, rock, country, and funk-flavored R&B – has made her a favorite in her hometown, where she is a fixture at the annual Jazz and Heritage Festival. She has also appeared on "The Rosie O'Donnell Show" and "Emeril Live," and collaborated with such luminaries as Charlie Daniels, Arlo Guthrie, and Delbert McClinton.
Blackwater FOE opens the night with their bluegrass twist on classic rock.
