The
Band!!!!!!
Born and raised on the north shore of Lake Pontchartrain, the Abita
Blues Band can be found playing their special brand of funk and
blues at festivals and clubs around Louisiana and beyond. Part swamp
boogie, part delta blues, and always funky, Abita Blues keeps 'em
coming back for more.
On
The Road
Abita Blues just returned from Disney’s Epcot International
Food & Wine Festival as the premier band representing Louisiana
at the grand opening of the Louisiana Exhibit in Epcot.
Other venues and festivals that they have visited include the Mandeville
Seafood Festival, Jefferson Parish Family Gras, Crescent City Classic,
live broadcasts on WWOZ and RADIO HOLSTEBRO in Denmark, Tab Benoit’s
Music Café, and Ruby’s Roadhouse, to name a few.
The
Sound
Abita Blues has a number of original songs, such as Junkyard Dog,
Blue Tattoo, and Dance in Your Slip that are quickly becoming favorites
with fans. The set list also includes their own version of traditional
blues tunes, including Red House, Crossroads, MoJo, Hey Pocky Way,
and many more that incorporate the street beats of New Orleans Funk
and warm tones of Delta Blues.
