The Rumble - Grammy-nominated band from New Orleans on EP07-S07 of Music Matters Podcast with Darrell Craig Harris
The Rumble: A New Orleans Experience Like No Other
In the latest episode of "Music Matters Podcast," I had the privilege of chatting with two key members of the seven member musical family called "The Rumble", those two band members being, Chief Joseph Boudreaux Jr and Aurélien Barnes. The band already has a Grammy-nominated debut album: "Live At The Maple Leaf" (hear it on DistroKid etc). Oh yeah don't forget to chaeckout the bands new Double (Limited Edition) Vinyl version as well...
The bands hometown is New Orleans, and they're shaking up the music scene with their electrifying blend of funk, brass, and Mardi Gras Indian culture.
The Rumble is more than just a band; they're a cultural force, carrying on the legacy of Black Masking Indians while infusing their sound with modern innovation. Their live performances are a symphony of pulsating rhythms, soulful vocals, and mesmerizing call-and-response chants, inviting audiences to participate in a living tradition that's both deeply rooted and constantly evolving.
During our chat, The Rumble's members shared their passion for preserving and sharing the rich history of Black Masking Indian culture. They spoke about the importance of passing down these traditions to future generations and how their music is a way to keep the spirit of Mardi Gras alive year-round.
I was particularly struck by the band's humility and commitment to their community. They recognize that their music is not just about entertainment; it's about connecting with people and sharing a message of unity, love, and resilience.
If you're looking to experience the heart and soul of New Orleans, look no further than The Rumble. Their music is infectious, their energy is unmatched, and their connection to the city's heritage is palpable. You're sure to have an unforgettable time grooving to the beat of The Rumble.
