Made In the Shade

discovered red stick ramblers, by chance, playing in Knoxville TN a couple of years back and became an instant fan. this latest album highlights the continuing maturation of a band with an original sound yet timeless quality. much recommended for those who appreciate some cowboy swing, cajun sounds and good party times

Their recordings are great but to see them live is the best treat of all. I have gone out of my way several times to see them live and every time these guys really shine. They are all fantastic musicians. If they come to your town don't miss them.

Louisiana's Red Stick Ramblers are the Pelican State's answer to the late, great Hot Club Of Cowtown - a lively, good-natured and remarkably diverse acoustic string band. Mixing Cajun music, Western swing, and good old-fashioned honky-tonk country, the Ramblers prove themselves as one of the most confident and musically accomplished bands on the Americana scene today. This is their fourth full-length album; hopefully there are plenty more to come! (DJ Joe Sixpack, Slipcue Country Guide)

The RSR freely admit they are not purely swing, Cajun, or anything else. Whatever they do, though, they do really well. Really talented bunch of musicians.

Wonderful Cajun swing music. As a non-Cajun, I find many Cajun singers to be lacking. Not this band!! Great fun. See them live for an even greater treat!
