Made In The Shade
On Made In The Shade, the fourth album from Baton Rouge-based Red Stick Ramblers, they romp and stomp through a crazy-quilt of originals and classic covers with the high-octane energy that could only come from a band accustomed to keeping dance-floors jumping for hours at a time.
From the kick-up-your-heels raucousness of Laissez Les Cajuns Danser (which positively bursts with both local pride and universal merriment) to the smooth, slinky swing of Count Basie and Jimmy Rushing’s Evenin', the band conjures up a mood that’s both heady and heartfelt.
Made In the Shade is not just focusing on a nostalgic sound, and the band don't drag modern elements into traditional tunes just for the sake of it.
