With the exception of Ani DiFranco (who was sold out), John Boutte (who played the day after we left) and Kermit Ruffins (who we just plain missed!) we didn’t recognize many of the musicians playing in New Orleans. So our plan was to wander around until we heard something we liked. Bourbon Street didn’t go well, but it totally paid off when we found the Washboard Chaz Blues Trio playing at The Spotted Cat on Frenchmen Street. I really loved listening to them, I’m planning on buying an album and it turns out I’d already heard them on Treme. I recommend listening now.
Jason – great photo and thanks for the nod. We are glad you enjoyed the show and visit anytime.
Chaz
Is that a real washboard. Love his music, must get his cd.
