The Revelers are founding members of the Red Stick Ramblers and The Pine Leaf Boys "unquestionably the two groups at the vanguard of the Louisiana cultural renaissance." Their newest project combines Swamp-Pop, Cajun, Country, Blues and Zydeco into a powerful tonic of roots music straight from Southwest Louisiana. "I declare henceforth that The Revelers are THE ambassadors to carry on the dance hall traditions that could ONLY come from Southwest Louisiana! " - Harry Charles III, Roots Review As individuals, they are each in high demand having performed and recorded with Natalie Merchant, Linda Ronstadt, Preston Frank, Walter Moution, Mamadou Diabate, Cedric Watson, and Tim O'Brien to name a few. As a group they play with a sense of empathy and depth that can only be fostered after years of making music together. They have all appeared on the 2011 season finale of Anthony Bourdain's No Reservations, and were handpicked by David Simon (producer/creator The Wire) to be featured musicians for the third season of HBO's Treme. Simply put, The Revelers are poised to be the next Louisiana super group.
