Bayou
Liberty Jazz Band
If
you like traditional New Orleans Jazz, you will love this
group. They are frequent visitors to the Jazz Fest, and are
steeped in the Dixieland Jazz tradition. Traditional Jazz
has proven to be very popular with our audience and one of
New Orleans' greatest contributions to the world. We are proud
to have this great musical tradition offered on our stage.
They are excited about their performance opportunity and we
are equally excited about their coming to the Opry.
The
Tanglers
This
young Bluegrass group hails from New Orleans. They have a
wonderful style of playing that they refer to as "Big
Easy Bluegrass." It is gratifying to see young musicians
who recognize the value of keeping the traditions alive and
we hope the Opry is a means of facilitating and encouraging
those musicians. Our rich New Orleans musical heritage enriches
traditional styles like Bluegrass, and we are looking forward
to hearing that from this group
Kyiko
McRae
This young lady is a New Orleans musician who is full of very
traditional music. She has a very commanding presence and
a powerful voice. She plays frequently in town and we were
very impressed by her vocals when we heard her at a New Orleans
Jam session. She promises to be a real treat as a newcomer
to the Abita Opry stage.
The
Petty Bones
The house band for the 2008 Spring Season will set the
mark of excellence that we have come to expect from our
other acts. They have a versatile repertoire that includes
old time country, bluegrass, gospel and a little blues
thrown in. Their presence is always a treat for the Opry.
