New Orleans Social Club: Six weeks after Hurricane Katrina, a group of legendary musicians from New Orleans gathered in Austin, TX, to record SING ME BACK HOME. I was fortunate to have been asked to be the Production Coordinator for the recording, and over seven magical days and nights, THE NEW ORLEANS SOCIAL CLUB was born. It was one of the most satisfying experiences of my music career to date.

The collection features performances by members of The Neville Brothers (Ivan, Cyril and Charles), The Meters (Leo Nocentelli and George Porter, Jr.), Raymond Weber & Henry Butler. They are joined by their friends and neighbors Irma Thomas, Marcia Ball, Dr. John, Willie Tee, Troy (Trombone Shorty) Andrews, the subdudes, the Mighty Chariots of Fire, Big Chief Monk Boudreaux and John Boutté.

On October 14 2006, The Social Club appeared on the legendary PBS Concert Series, Austin City Limits, and the show is regularly repeated, so check your listings. They have also performed at many popular festivals and venues, including Jazzfest, Mountain Jam, Langerado, Calgary, and Wolftrap.  Currently the band members are all very busy with their solo careers, and the band is on hiatus.
