For the 9th anniversary of Hurricane Katrina, Nine Lives – A Musical Witness of New Orleans, was shown again for three nights in a row at Le Petit Theatre du Vieux Carre. This year’s event has seen a major overhaul to the production and screenplay, based on the book by Dan Baum. Set to songs and stories by Paul Sanchez and Colman deKay, a top-notch cast and production crew was brought in to bring the play even more alive. Directed by James Fitzmorris, and with Kimberly Kaye and Michael Cerveris in the wings (and Cerveris playing one of the musical’s memorable characters), the cast and crew include many local artists and actors (including Paul Sanchez, Shamarr Allen, Jesse Moore, Matt Perrine, Erica Falls, Alex McMurray and many more), bringing an authenticity that could not be found elsewhere. Press and more information can be found at the links below. Carla “Roxy” Bergeron is named as one of the producers for the play, and is officially presented by CSB / Roxy Music.

CSB / Roxy Music is proud to support, in part, Arsene DeLay‘s first studio album, “Comin’ Home.” Already getting rave reviews, DeLay’s debut roared out to the shelves in New Orleans and across the world on CD Baby, and more on April 2nd, 2014. As the youngest vocalist of the Boutte family, she has a lot to live up to in the music world. But she certainly sets herself apart with the record, creating a style all her own with songs that everyone knows to those of her own writing and arranging. A rock album still firmly set in the jazz and funk style of which New Orleans is known, Arsene creates a collection of songs for all occasions, and leaves you wanting more.
