6pm - 8pm BOBBY & THE BLISTERS (New Orleans Jazz Funk)
More than just a jazz band, THE BLISTERS’ “in your face” style
of New Orleans party music has people dancing in the seats, in the
aisles, and on their feet! Depending on who’s asking, BOBBY &
THE BLISTERS are an R&B, jazz, or Creole/Zydeco band. Centered
around singer/pianist/song stylist Bobby Gangloff, he’ll have you
believing he’s an original New Orleans barrelhouse piano-pounder.
Saxophonist and dance master Ron McCode (recently named an
“up-and-coming artist” on BET) uses a wireless mic to mingle with
the fans. Providing THE BLISTERS back-beat is a drummer of unique
and sophisticated drum styles, Todd Walker. Visit their website >> | Visit their Facebook page >> |
