Louisiana Calling

With Louisiana Calling, you have to answer. Following up on last year’s sold-out shows and standing ovations across the country, the deep roots caravan of Cajun slide guitar wiz Sonny Landreth and New Orleans Latin-Americana rockers The Iguanas advances into the new year. This perfect pairing is irresistible, and both bands are firing on all cylinders.

- Sonny Landreth:

“Sonny Landreth is probably the most underestimated musician on the planet, and also probably one of the most advanced.” – Eric Clapton

New frontiers fit nicely atop the boundary breaking career of singer songwriter and slide guitar icon Sonny Landreth. From performing live with Buddy Guy and John Hiatt in theaters and arenas around the United States, to post New Orleans Jazz Fest jamming on bayou rhythms with Oteil Burbridge and Johnny Vidacovich, to recording and playing live with ukulele phenom Jake Shimabukuro at The Blue Note in Hawaii, it has been a noteworthy couple of years for the two time Grammy nominee. And those are just his side projects.

- The Iguanas:

What if Americana actually encompassed ALL of North America? You’d have the Franco Acadian inflections of Canada, as best exemplified by the accordion, blues and jazz, the only truly indigenous music the US has ever produced, and the lilting grace and fiery passion of the music of Mexico. You’d also have New Orleans’ premiere distillers of this continental musical melange, The Iguanas.
