As part of our Fest-O-Matic series, we are excited to bring back “Louisiana Calling,” a curated show by one of the finest slide guitar players to ever pick up the instrument…Lafayette’s own Sonny Landreth!
Bonnie Raitt calls him, “one of the most astonishing guitarists I know.” Eric Clapton says, ““Sonny Landreth is probably the most underestimated musician on the planet, and also probably one of the most advanced.”
With multiple Grammy nominations and credits that include Clifton Chenier, Jimmy Buffett, John Mayall and John Hiatt, Sonny has been lighting up stages around the world for decades. And we are blessed that he chooses Chickie Wah Wah as the place to do a residency with one of his favorite acts in South Louisiana, his old friends the Iguanas. A fixture of the New Orleans music scene for over three decades, the Iguanas blend Tejano and Conjunto sounds from the Texas/Mexico border region with Blues, Jazz and New Orleans R&B, and the fiery passion of the music of the Caribbean and Mexico. Their songs can bring you to tears. Tonight the Iguanas will start with a full set of their own music, and then Sonny will close the show with a set of his own.
Non reserved - Tables are only available for purchase as a party of four (4 seats per table).
Tables are assigned on arrival at the show on a first come, first served basis.
