“Cannes Brulees cooks up a satisfying gumbo of swamp rock, bayou blues, Crescent City R & B and Native music. “We are the People” celebrates the Native roots of New Orleans with a simmering second-line beat and powerful call-and-response vocals. The swamp rock of, “Rosalie Courteau” tells the story of a woman who fought for the rights of the Houma Nation in the early 1800’s and “Love Me This Way” is a rock ‘n roll love song marked by the band’s chiming high harmonies and Chris Young’s growling lead guitar. Creppel’s potent vocals and the tight ensemble work of the band make every tune on the album bristle with energy, while guest artist, Rick Tobey’s sanctified organ work brings another soulful dimension to this splendid album.”
