Please come join us as we welcome some New Orleans-based badasses, the psych-rock band Hash Cabbage!
H.C. Bio:
"Founded in New Orleans, Hash Cabbage plays Kozmic Psychedelic American Music. Hash Cabbage has an eclectic sound with a variety of influences from southern rock, improvisational jazz, reggae, funk, outlaw country all the way to surreal psychedelia. Rooted in both rock improv and traditional singer/songwriter structure, Hash Cabbage proudly admits that it doesn't fully fall into any particular subgenre and skates on the edges of many. Hash Cabbage released its second full length 11-track album entitled “The Gospel According to Hash Cabbage” in April, 2021."
Jefferson founded Hash Cabbage in 2017. Music at that time had been on his back burner, until personal changes found him “needing to spark that flame again.” He soon found himself sorting through the many players a city like New Orleans can provide. Hash Cabbage is now made up of some of the best the Big Easy has to offer – music teachers who moonlight as musicians, or musicians who moonlight as music teachers, teachers who at times are teaching Jefferson, who cites himself as the weakest musical link in the bunch.
“I’m the worst, least talented musician in this band, and that’s a great position to be in,” he said. “You want to be pushed. You’re not going to get any better by playing with people who can’t keep up with you, you want to be able to keep up with them. But hey, I can write songs and sing, and it all works great together.”
Despite being a New Orleans band, they do more than play the music of The Neville Brothers, Dr. John or Kermit Ruffins, as New Orleans is a city that’s more than horn-heavy music providing a score to suck down Hurricanes. “The Gospel According to Hash Cabbage” pulls from all the corners of American music, from funk and jazz to rock and country. It’s high energy, exploratory rock music that will fill a dance floor, a brand of Americana influenced by myriad musicians whose sounds have influenced the gumbo that is 21st century, high energy rock ’n’ roll. There’s also an improvisational nature with an indie flair, a loose sound for fans who will ignore any musical flavors of the week. Despite the word “improvisational,” they’re not a jam band.
“You know, it’s kind of a love hate, give and take with that term. It’s a catch-all phrase, like all genres now, that you use to pigeonhole and label things so that the ultimate consumer can know what they’re looking for. I think a lot of bands that just play music from traditional American music genres, rock ’n’ roll, Americana, country and Western, classic funk, a lot of these festival bands they just get thrown in,” Jefferson said. “It doesn’t mean much, other than you’re not going to be on commercial radio.”
