MARY BROUSSARD
Mary Broussard is an acoustic singer-songwriter from Scott, Louisiana. Daughter of musician Tony Broussard, niece of Louisiana Hall of Fame guitarist Ted Broussard, and cousin of well known 'Bayou Soul' singer Marc Broussard, music has been a part of her life since her childhood. From taking up guitar in her room at age 14 to now, she has written over 100 original songs. By drawing from her own experiences, poetry, and classic literature and film, she produces heartfelt, poetic, vulnerable music.
ERICA FOX
Erica Fox’s talent is as diverse as the culture of her Southern upbringing. Her music is characteristic of the down-home lifestyle she was nurtured in, flavored with a dash of Louisiana blues and a pinch of country soul.
JULIE WILLIAMS
Born and raised in South Louisiana, Julie Williams started her musical journey on stage at the young age of 4 years old. These early days were spent performing in her church and even traveling to other churches with her family band. By age 16, she had a jazz residency at a downtown Lafayette venue called Artmosphere.
Once she finished school, Julie was in search of something new and relocated to Music City, Nashville, TN. She performed in local honkey tonks and played along Broadway Avenue. After her Tennessee adventure, she took time to experience life in New Orleans and soak up some soul and grit. While in New Orleans, she performed at both large and small venues and at many festivals with a full band that toured across the U.S. before completing the circle back home.
NIKIA YUNG
Nikia Yung, multi-instrumentalist and songwriter, uses the violin in an unconventional way, bridging the gap between classical, pop and soul. With emotionally-charged lyrics and cinematic lines, her music is described as pure and beautiful with a touch of bold sass. Yung is taking the reigns on a new sound with a bigger punch.
SAILOR MOUTH
Birthed from the rich culture and sounds of South Louisiana, Sailor Mouth is an RnB/Soul trio who aim to push the boundaries of the genre, while preserving the essence of the greats who came before them. Fusing elements of RnB, Soul, Funk, Blues, and Rock, their sound is an eclectic melting pot; constantly evolving.
RAYO BROTHERS
Daniel and Jesse Reaux began performing as The Rayo Brothers at a songwriter competition in their home town of Lafayette, Louisiana. Joined by bandmates Lance Kelehan and Jordan Ardoin, the brothers present "honest and insightful" songwriting against a backdrop of "impassioned folk rock and modern alt-country with majestic, sweeping arrangements" (Offbeat Magazine). Featuring sibling harmonies and a variety of instrumentation, they put on a rollicking show that flows from raucous foot-stompers to intimate ballads and everywhere in between.
