Mucho Gumbo: Mardi Gras Parade Pre-Party!
Tex-Mex/Swamp Pop/Cajun • $5 COVER AT DOOR
Hailing from Charlotte NC, MUCHO GUMBO was sparked in 2020 as this close group of musical compadres gathered fireside to swap favorite tunes!
Jean Prewitt & Don Cowan bring their experience with cajun & zydeco with bits of country, blues, swamp pop & swing stemming from several decades with Carolina Gator Gumbo and Zydeco Ya Ya.
Bill Noonan has been exploring the border of country & western and rock & roll since the early ‘80s as a solo artist & bandleader, perhaps best known as leader of Rank Outsiders in the 90s and ‘00s. Ken Cotner is one of the most in-demand and in-the-pocket bass players in the area. Peter Chakales has been contributing awesome rhythm & excitement to an array of best bands (including Bill Sheffield & the XL’s) all over the southeast for years!
A mutual spark was ignited by adding Tex-Mex to their gumbo of shared styles, and the resulting fire is burning hot, exciting and inviting!
