Honey Island Swamp Band
Great music begins with great songs, and great songs are what the Honey Island Swamp Band is all about. The band came together after Aaron Wilkinson (mandolin, guitar, vocals) and Chris Mulé (lead guitar, vocals) were marooned in San Francisco after Hurricane Katrina devastated New Orleans, and had a chance encounter with fellow hurricane evacuees Sam Price (bass, vocals) and Garland Paul (drums, vocals). A few days later they had landed a weekly gig at the Boom Boom Room on Fillmore Street, and settled in to share a little taste of southern culture with their new west coast neighbors. In April 2009, the band released its first full-length album, Wishing Well, produced by Tom Drummond of Better Than Ezra, followed by their premiere performances at the French Quarter Festival and the New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival. The band has toured nationally throughout 2009 in support of Wishing Well, spreading their “Bayou Americana” sound and building enthusatic fanbases from San Francisco to New York. $10 cover
