Soggy Po’ Boys

The Soggy Po Boys, native to New England, have quickly become an institution. They spread the good news of New Orleans music across the northeast and beyond, playing at concert halls and street corners, music festivals and burlesque festivals, bars, and libraries, wherever the party requires. Part of the beauty of New Orleans music is that it’s celebrated and appreciated wherever it goes, from the street to the theater.

The Po Boys were formed in 2011 to shake the walls of a local club on a Fat Tuesday but have honed their sound and become more than a Mardi Gras centerpiece. The Po Boys have grown to explore the vast music of New Orleans and have expanded their repertoire to look beyond jazz to include traditional Caribbean tunes, funk, soul, and, of course, brass band music.

“…These guys have done their homework, worked it out on the bandstand, and put in the hours in the studio. It all adds up to a party you can bring with you when you want to treat your friends to a real good time.” -Ben Shenck of New Orleans’ Panorama Jazz Band.
