What happens when you are physically undead from too many gigs/witless side-hustles and want to kick everyone in the kneecaps? You put on bear-cat ears, drink a stimulant, and show up at the after-party! A whale of a time! (Happy birthday to Renard Boussiere and Gloria Turrini.) Heard tunes from tons of excellent local singer-songwriters after kicking things off with Katie Sikora talking about “The Sexism Project” (journalistic exhibition she’s spearheading which runs Nov. 2, 3, and 5 at Prez Hall.) Many of the recorded tunes we “spun” last night are from the artists playing the event. (Also, past MM&BRH guest Dominique LeJeune aka DJ Dominomnom is DJing the opening night. Woo!) See playlist below!

Episode 46: The Big Ol’ Chicken-Less Fest

(It’s October 22nd, and you know what that means…it’s time for THE BIG OL’ CHICKEN-FEST!
(I completely made that up.) We’re celebrating my dad being in town with a boiled chicken/fried fish fiasco a la Darby and Brandy Roden, plus mystery *legal* reptile courtesy of Cajun cooker Red DeVecca… And (duh) New Orleans music played live from 102.3 WHIV FM studios! Plus…
Episode 45: The Hot Brown
MM&BRH #45: “The Hot Brown” (…Recipe: Hip Hop + Southern Rock + Ukuleles + Trad Jazz + Punk + Comedy + Chaos, Moonpies, Moonshine, and a pinch of children and dogs. Topped with bacon, served with dragonfruit.)
Thank you oodles to everyone who played live music, brought in tracks, blood on the tracks, made a Hot Brown, crossed Parish Lines, supplied moonpies/gas station food/liquor-water (plenty of sauza-flavored water in the trunk for next week, thank you mystery Good Samaritan!) etc.
Episode 44: Sqrrlz & Grrlz!
Following the raging success of last week’s “Fishes n B!tches” fish fry, Musicians, Mentors, and Barroom Heroes brings you “Sqrrlz & Grrlz”, a Michael-Darby-homecooked squirrel stew (or something) on-air extravaganza, complete with alligator meat from Red DeVecca and a frozen rabbit/possum from Lou. Come for the sqrrlz, stay for the grrlz. (Or vice versa.) Tune in for the sizzle.
