Soggy Po Boys Celebrate the Life of Allen Toussaint

Dance Hall favorites, The Soggy Po Boys, will commence their 2016 performance-lecture series "Honoring a Tradition" with a tribute to the late Allen Touissant on Saturday, March 26, at 7pm. "Honoring a Tradition" is a three-part music series organized and orchestrated by the seacoast's own New Orleans-inspired group. The seeds for the series were planted last year when the band organized a performance of all Louis Armstrong music that was framed and punctuated by short lectures in which band members contextualized Armstrong's music with social, cultural, and biographical commentary.

By popular demand, the Soggy Po Boys are excited to continue this enriching project and further sink their teeth into the towering muffuletta that is New Orleans music culture. Pre-concert talk at 7pm, followed by two sets of music starting at 8pm.

The Soggy Po Boys are:
Eric Klaxton-Saxophone
Zach Lange-Trumpet
Nick Mainella-Saxophone
Mike Effenberger-Piano
Stu Dias-Guitar and Vocals
Brett Gallo-Drums
Nicholas Phaneuf-Bass
