HANGOUT FEST 2010
Big shout out to the hard working folks who put on the first annual Hangout Music Fest in beautiful Gulf Shores, AL. Never been to a better-run, more beautiful fest than this one- and on top of it all, all proceeds go to help save our threatened Gulf Coast from this nasty oil spill. . If you don't love crystal blue water, sugar-white beaches, hot girls in bikinis and three days of world-class talent on four incredible stages - this one's not for you! Can't wait for next year!
JAZZ FEST 2010
Well another Jazz Fest has come and gone and the slow recovery continues! We had an incredible two weeks and want to sincerely thank all the fans who came to see us, all the clubs that invited us to play, all the musicians who joined us, and most of all, the great people at the New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival who invited us to be a part of the greatest music event in the world again this year. Can't wait for 2011!
WINNERS!
We are thrilled to announce that the Honey Island Swamp Band has been named Best Emerging Artist 2009 by New Orleans' legendary Offbeat Magazine! The band also picked up Best Blues Album of the year honors for Wishing Well. Thanks to all of our dedicated fans who voted for us and have supported us all year long - we couldn't have made it without you! Thanks to Offbeat Magazine for the honor and all you do for New Orleans music. Here's to an even bigger 2010!
TIPITINA’S!
What a killer time we had at Tip's. It was an honor and a priviledge to be onstage at the heart of New Orleans music, Tipitina's Uptown. Thanks to everybody who came out, it meant a lot to see all of those familiar faces, and it was great to see some new ones too. Thanks also to Evelyn Montgomery, Jimmy Carpenter and Derek Huston for contributing their incredible musicianship and helping us bring it home in style! There are some great shots here taken by our good friend and photographer extraodinairre Jeffery Dupuis. Check out the rest of this shoot and much, much more at his website, www.JefferyDupuis.com .
