Sweet Sheiks
Bringing a little bit of the Big Easy to the Brew City, Sweet Sheiks is a toe-tapping five-some inspired by the popular music of the teens, twenties, and thirties. Led by the vintage vocals of Jen Lauren, the lineup includes guitar, tuba, banjolin, clarinet and trombone. They bring a modern flair to early jazz, blues, and Americana classics. Sweet Sheiks’ acoustic stylings are compelling, diverting, and are best summed up in two words, “refreshingly vintage.”
Yes Ma’am
Based in New Orleans, Yes Ma’am combines street music and 20’s style blues to create their original sound. Born from punk ethics and refined by years of performing alongside The Big Easy’s most talented street musicians, Yes Ma’am captures the spirit of the south with their gritty blues and rock n’ roll. Matthew Bracken’s soulful vocals and his rotating cast of all star musicians have gained attention from The Voice, New Orleans “Best Of Street”, and the world over.
