DIRECT from NEW ORLEANS to the BBE in SF ** HONEY ISLAND SWAMP BAND ** “Honey Island Swamp Band’s rustic, roots vibe follows the tradition of melding country, soul, funk and blues flavors to render a sound that is decidedly New Orleanian but with an Americana twist.” - Relix “These songs [on Custom Deluxe] are like entrees of the tastiest New Orleans sounds, fusing roots, blues, Southern rock and beyond. It’s gumbo with gusto…Honey Island Swamp Band’s new album is polished, smooth (like honey) and groovy.” - Americana Highways “A unique blend of roots music inspired both by their longtime status as New Orleans residents and their birth in San Francisco.” - Live For Live Music The Honey Island Swamp Band are a thrilling, eclectic band that defies genre conventions, renders song structures elastic, and wholeheartedly stresses that the song reigns supreme. Since they formed in 2005 in San Francisco after their displacement from New Orleans via Katrina (and subsequently relocated back home), the band has evolved to embody contemporary roots music. The fivesome, bandleader and multi-instrumentalist Aaron Wilkinson, guitarist and vocalist Lee Yankee, bassist Sam Price, keyboardist Chris Spies, and drummer and vocalist Garland Paul released “Custom Deluxe”  (Color Red Music) their most satisfying, consolidative album to date. Songs like the kinetic “High River Rag,” authoritative “Wildfire” and blues-rocking “Sugar For Sugar” display these musical omnivores at a new zenith. “We’re definitely melody-driven, vocal-driven, lyric-driven,” Wilkinson explains of the Honey Island Swamp Band’s modus operandi at this juncture, with Custom Deluxe. “We like something that’s new, yet sounds like it could have been a hit that you didn’t know about.” Honey Island Swamp Band is: Aaron Wilkinson – vocals, guitar, mandolin, harmonica Lee Yankie – guitar, vocals Chris Spies – keyboards Sam Price – bass, vocals Garland Paul – drums, vocals The Honey Island Swamp Band catalog also includes five award winning albums – Honey Island Swamp Band (2007), Wishing Well (2009), Good to You (2012), Cane Sugar (2014) and Demolition Day (2016) – each of which was named Roots Rock Album of the Year by New Orleans’ prestigious Offbeat Magazine. “Somewhere, there exists a dark, smoky bar with a jukebox that spins George Jones, Gram Parsons, Delbert McClinton, and Little Feat. And if that fantasy honky‐tonk lights your Marlboro, you need to know about Honey Island Swamp Band.” – Broward‐Palm Beach New Times www.honeyislandswampband.com BUY TIX ONLINE in ADVANCE (only $20):   BOOMBOOMROOM.COM and also TIX AVAILABLE... $20+ at the door on Night of the show (8pm - 2:30am)
