Bourbonnais

Date TBA

Next to Fall

Somewhere in between jazz and blues you'll find the music through the heart of Sharon Bourbonnais. When you see her fingers glide effortlessly across 88 keys and hear her sultry voice inviting you to share in clever, insightful stories, you immediately sense this is not your typical singer/songwriter fare. Occupying a fun niche between New Orleans inspired jazz and Texas blues, Sharon’s music swings and sings of love lost, new romance, party dance and panache.

"Sharon Bourbonnais,
“A Girl’s Gotta Play.”
The leader of the band Tres Bourbonnais perhaps walks in the footsteps of longtime Austin favorite Marcia Ball, mixing swampy blues and rootsy jazz with her piano playing and sassy vocals front and center. Tight rhythms and occasional blasts of horns spice up Bourbonnais’ good-time groove on these 10 tracks."
