Album Notes

Gumbohead is a collective of rhythmic rapscallions and tuneful tricknologists who find great joy playing music born in and influenced by New Orleans and southwest Louisiana.

To hear the band is to experience the full spectrum of Louisiana dance music, including zydeco, funk, blues, jazz, r&b, brass band and traditional “second line” tunes.

Their latest CD, "Gumbohead," is a mix of many of these styles – from the get-your-party-kick-started opening zydeco tune, Clifton Chenier's "Party Down," to the rambling piano boogie of the Wild Magnolias' "Pocket Change." It also includes several original numbers, like the horn-infused funk of "Spy Boy," the rollicking blues of "Stir The Pot" and "Drunk On Love," which sounds as if it might be at home near closing time in your local jazz lounge.

If you're a fan of Louisiana music, you'll feel right at home with Gumbohead.

This cd conveys a feeling of a band who shares a common passion and competience for Louisiana bayou music. Favorite tracks Party Down, Zydeco Sont Pas Salé, and you'd swear Marcia Ball was at the 88's on Hot Sauce Boogie. They each capture that authentic essence. Truly a solid cd. When you can't get to 'the Quarter, this cd will bring 'the Quarter to you!

This is a true musical gumbo- a little bit of this, a little bit of that- but it all works together to make some great music. Good for whatever ails you.
