I finally got to see the Breton Sound perform when I was in New Orleans for Mardi Gras. I can now confirm that they’re the real deal — their concerts are just as fun as their albums. Speaking of which, they’re getting ready to release a new one. Check out the new single, pay what you want to download it, and get excited for Don’t Be Afraid of Rock & Roll, which will be out on May 19th.
The Breton Sound — Official, Facebook, Bandcamp
If you love musicians from New Orleans, then you’ll love the Proud compilation, which is like 70% New Orleans and New Orleans-related musicians! And if you’re in New York, you can meet the other 30% of the artists tomorrow! Adobe
