With a mix of funky horns, the swoon of pedal-steel guitar, and a helping of the blues, the New Orleans-based 7-piece outfit, The Revivalists, dig into all kinds of roots for their soulful rockenroll “with jam band tendencies” (Michael Bialas, HuffPost.) Fresh from their appearance at the New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival, they’ll play their hearts out for us in the Soundcheck studio.
