Eunice: Sunday at The Liberty with
The Red Stick Ramblers
March 2, 2003
|
The Red Stick Ramblers brought their Cajun
gypsy swing music to the Liberty Theater as part of a benefit concert organized by Ann
Savoy to help support her church. The band performed original compositions, Western and
jazz swing, and, to mention one specific number that will be on the group's second CD,
"Sixteen Tons," a song made popular by Tennessee Ernie Ford and now
available in a new version featuring Linzay Young's vocals and the energetic,
tightly knit swing style of some very accomplished young musicians. Other band members are
Joel Savoy on fiddle; Chas Justis on guitar; Ricky Rees on bass; Josh Caffery on mandolin;
and Glenn Fields on drums.
