From Cajun country to The Big Easy, two of Louisiana's finest Marc Broussard & The Dirty Dozen Brass Band come together to share an uplifting night of Bayou soul and New Orleans brass music.
Marc Broussard, considered by some as one of the great vocalists of all time, won critical notice with his fusion of Gospel, Classic R&B and down-home Southern Roots at age 20 with his debut EP, "Momentary Setback". He built on that foundation through extensive touring, national TV appearances and philanthropic work for Habitat for Humanity, United Way and post-Katrina relief. He has since released four studio albums (including his self-titled 2011 album) and twice scored hits on Billboard's Adult Top 40 Tracks chart.

The Dirty Dozen Brass Band is world famous for their genre-bending romps and high-octane performances that blend top notch chops with their non stop party vibe. New Orleans' most popular and funkiest Brass Band, "The Dozen" were the first to put their own brass band take on contemporary music, influencing all the modern brass bands that followed. The legendary group defies all categorization with collaborations from Miles Davis and Dizzy Gillespie to Dave Matthews, Widespread Panic and more. The Dirty Dozen Brass Band recently celebrated the 25th Anniversary and re-release of their landmark debut album My Feet Can't Fail Me Now.
