To coincide with the happenings at South By Southwest in Austin, the Backbeat Foundation will present Export NOLA on Wednesday, March 17th at Momo's. The showcase will feature New Orleans artists that represent various styles of music that the Crescent City is known for, including Anders Osborne, Big Sam's Funky Nation, and The Stooges Brass Band.
Anders Osborne
Anders been working and living as a professional songwriter out of New Orleans since 1985. Anders has a new CD featuring Stanton Moore (Galactic), Robert Walter and Pepper Keenan (DOWN) among others, slated to be released on Alligator Records on April 27, 2010. Osborne's songs have been recorded by artists such as Tim McGraw, Keb' Mo', Dr. John, Tab Benoit, Double Trouble, and countless others. Osborne's travels, life experiences, and his story telling ability gives him a prominent edge as a songwriter and wordsmith. His music and performance bends the sounds of New Orleans funk, blues, rock & roll and soul into a style that's all his own.
