The Po’ Ramblin’ Boys
Established in 2014 and still going strong!
The Po' Ramblin' Boys started as a house band at Ole Smoky Moonshine in Gatlinburg, TN with no intention of touring or traveling, but fate had other plans. Check out their tour schedule to see when the Boys may be in your area!
Caleb Klauder & Reeb Willms
Caleb Klauder and Reeb Willms both originally hail from Washington State: Caleb from the coastal islands, and Reeb from the high desert plateau. The two have come together in music and are hailed as some of the most compelling musicians making country roots music in America today. When these two sing together, their honest incantations leave us spell-bound and smiling.
Gina Forsyth and the Copper Roosters
New Orleans-based Gina Forsyth is an award-winning singer/songwriter, who is known for her wizardry on fiddle and guitar. With an alto as unique as it is soulful, unpretentious songs that cut straight to the heart, and a wicked sense of humor, her live performances are legend. Considered one of the best Cajun fiddlers in Louisiana, no small feat.
Swampland String Band
Swampland String Band formed out of a bluegrass jam in 2021, bringing together some of the top pickers from across south Louisiana. Bluegrass standards are the band’s meat and potatoes, but they easily branch off into swing or Celtic tunes when the mood is right. Swampland String Band plays on festival stages, back porches, and anywhere in between in Louisiana, Texas, and beyond. Band members include Jesse Reaux (The Rayo Brothers), Chris Roy, Cameron Fontenot, Brian Rogers, Gray Pumpelly, and Alex Goodrich.
Dead Magnolia String Band
One way or another, the members of the Dead Magnolia String Band met while picking, chopping, sawing, or hollering at New Orleans’ historic Monday Night Pickin’ Party (formerly at the legendary Hi-Ho Lounge, now hosted at NOLA Brewery). Officially branded in 2025, the traditional bluegrass unit has performed shows across the metro area and surrounding states; they can most frequently be found playing on Friday nights in the back left corner of Brothers III Lounge on Magazine Street. While individual band members stem from various corners of the United States, including NY, OH, TN, and LA, collectively, they call New Orleans home and proudly represent their city's steadfast bluegrass community.
