| Mar 18 (Thu) Mar 19 (Fri) | Red Stick Ramblers 8 pm on March 18th & 19th. Stuart's welcomes back Louisiana's Red Stick Ramblers for what is sure to be another night filled with Cajun music and dancing! The Ramblers play a unique hybrid of Cajun, country, stringband, and swing influences - a sound marked by a daring willingness to experiment with mixing different elements. Hard driving, witty, eclectic, and honest, the music of the Red Stick Ramblers is inseparable from their way of life and the rich Louisiana culture that first inspired them. Their fifth album, My Suitcase Is Always Packed, is as much a travelogue as a sound recording, complete with audio snapshots of relentless all-night dances, laid back campfire sessions, dusty honky-tonks, and raucous family reunions.

| Mar 29 (Mon) | Paul Thorn 7 pm. Stuart's is excited to announce the return of Paul Thorn to our stage. Paul has come very close to selling out his last two performances, and with good reason. Kris Kristofferson calls him "...the best kept secret in the music business." the first thing you notice is the Voice, unique and distinctive, the voice of a man who has walked a long, hot span over dusty Mississippi country roads. At turns soulful, raw, melancholy, brazen, funky, circumspect, serene, brooding, and mutinous, the voice expresses the range of human emotions, from forlorn grimness to incandescent optimism. and after repeated listens, you realize that his is not merely the voice of a poet but also of a merciful prophet, a summation not unjustified. Those who follow the career of Paul Thorn believe he is both. His newest CD is A Long Way From Tupelo, a collection of songs which once again illustrates Thorn's versatility and authentic connection to the music of the Mississippi heartland: blues, country, gospel, rhythm and blues, and rock 'n' roll. Thorn excels as a musical storyteller. Maybe, given his background, he just can't help it. His songs are conduits for that gritty part of the South where beleaguered wisdom is as likely from the bottom of a bottle of Johnny Walker Red as it is from the pulpit of an old country church. And the latest Paul Thorn CD remains true to form. For more information visit www.paulthorn.com. Cost: $16-$19 per person Contact: Stuart's Opera House | Arts/Music/Film![]() |
