Curious of the Board's opinion. Like to go see some new acts too.
I think Earphunk is doing very strong things.
Motel Radio def on the rise
Mainstream, I imagine most will say Revivalists but I just can't get into them.
From the old guard, thought Galactic did some decent things on their 2015 album

Seratones, except they are technically Shreveport based.

I've been gone for a couple of years, but I'll nominate Colin Lake, Dave Jordan Band and Mountain of Wizard as some of the better, underrated NOLA bands.

Cowboy Mouth

Is it cool to shite on the Revivalists now?
Anyway in a city with a ton of great bands, they've actually got a great collection of songs. The Breton Sound is great but their songwriting is just not on the same level.

Since I've no music board cred to lose, I'm going to say the Revivalists.
Their last album was "meh" overall but had a few great songs. And they play one of the most best live shows I've ever seen. I'll never forget the first time I saw them at Voodoo. Then they stole the show the next time I saw them when they opened for JJ Grey & Mofro at the Varsity.
Eric Lindell is another one of my favorite NOLA based musicians.
I'll definitely have to check out some of these recommendations.
Since I did it for the Best Album thread, I figured "why the hell not" and made a playlist based on the bands listed. This playlist is pretty damn solid.

Anders Osborne Band gets my vote. Especially with John Gros on the keys.
Can't really deal with the lead singer for the Revivalists, but like the band itself. Little Freddie King is cool, but he is pretty low energy. Johnny Vidacovich Trio (whoever he is playing with) would definitely be up there for me. I'm a fan of Earphunk as well.

Anders Osborne is my vote. Each time I see him, he has new energy and continues to amaze me. He has his first headlining full North American tour this past winter.
He style and tone is always evolving and he has yet to even let a slight bit off the gas of inspiration for new materal. That man has a lot of hurt in his soul has is getting out.
Glad he is clean and will be around for years to come.

I don't want to let this thread get hijacked with too much conversation about Cowboy Mouth.
After much thought I want to also throw both Dumpstaphunk and Naughty Professor into my top 5.
It would look something like this:
1 ) Anders Osborne - He is the man. Carl Dufresne on bass is a monster. Love his sound.
2) Dumpstaphunk - Their new album is great. They don't play in Nola often enough, but they are awesome.
3) Naughty Professor - They are a younger version of Snarky Puppy. On tour with Galactic currently.
4) Gravity A - Live Electronica. Also great when they play that funk. Drew Meez on keys and Devin on bass are dirty.
5) Cole Williams Band - She used to sing with the Pimps of Joytime. Marc Stone plays guitar. Jeff Jani on drums. Very underrated NOLA Band.
