Boogie on the Bayou brings together two Grammy winning legends of zydeco music in one, rollicking concert. USA Today calls the Texas born, Louisiana raised Marcia Ball “a sensational, saucy singer and superb pianist... where Texas stomp-rock and Louisiana blues-swamp meet." She is famed worldwide for igniting a full-scale roadhouse rhythm and blues party every time she strolls on stage. Singing songs about wild parties, twisted motel affairs and the enduring power of love, Ball is famed worldwide for igniting a full-scale rhythm and blues party every time she strolls on stage.
One of Louisiana’s favorite sons, Terrance Simien is a multi-Grammy Award winner internationally known for his live performances. For over 30 years Simien, an 8th generation Louisiana Creole, has been creating a hypnotic blend of New Orleans flavored funk-reggae, world-blues music. One of the most respected and accomplished artists in American roots music today, he can be heard (and seen, with a little help from Disney) in the Oscar-nominated animated film “The Princess & The Frog” set in the French Quarter of New Orleans.
“…An ever-wonderful brand of bayou boogie and nonstop keyboard pounding that never grows old.”
--The Austin Chronicle
"Ball plays masterful, red hot tracks from the Texas-Louisiana border. Her voice can break your heart with a ballad or break your back with a rocker." –Boston Herald
“Simien is a Zydeco Master: his voice yearning like Sam Cooke, he delivers soul worthy of Stax greats and shows crossover class.”
–Rolling Stone
