Style: Hot and spicy! New Orleans rockin’ roots & blues.
Description: Take the rhythm of the Maritime Acadian music, season well with Louisiana zydeco blues, add a twist of Highway 61 era Dylan, serve it up with great showmanship, and you’ve got a potent musical cocktail that will have your head spinning and your feet dancing! (Island Folks Festival)
Gary Comeau is a singer-songwriter and musician of unusual diversity and talent.
Playing a range of instruments including guitar, mandolin, fiddle, and piano he delivers originally crafted, high energy, New Orleans-style rockin' roots and blues. Although Gary’s own roots are French-Acadian-he was born and raised in Nova Scotia-- his soul seems to have taken a long and inspiring detour through Louisiana and the Mississippi Delta.
Gary Comeau & The Voodoo Allstars have been tearing it up with their original brand of swamp, roots, and bayou blues. Their live performances are, more often than not, the highlite of the festivals where they've performed in the past year, and 2005 looks like another exciting year for "swamp kings from the west coast".
