The Big Easy Boys are a quartet that pays tribute to the 20th century greats of New Orleans R&B, including Fats Domino, Allen Toussaint, Irma Thomas, Dr. John, and Louis Prima, among others. Backed by a trio of Big Easy Babes and a seven-piece band, the group's tight harmonies and precision choreography showcase the vibrant spirit and rich musical heritage of the Crescent City.
The group has performed sold-out runs in local theaters, including "The Big Easy Boys: Live on Lloyd Price Ave" at Rivertown Theaters in Kenner, and has recently branched out into new venues around New Orleans. In 2023, the group launched a new act, The Big Easy Beat, a celebration of classic New Orleans R&B that honors dozens of ground-breaking musicians who laid the foundation for the rock 'n' roll revolution, expanding on the original quartet's focus with a broader tribute to the city's musical legacy.
Whether performing as the original throwback quartet or under The Big Easy Beat banner, the group frames its shows with background on the music's inspiration and connection to New Orleans, transporting audiences through the diverse genres, from jazz and blues to funk and zydeco, that have shaped the city's iconic sound.
