Search - Dale Hawkins :: Back Down To Louisiana

A multi-threat first generation rock and roll performer, Dale Hawkins has never left rock and roll behind, neither has he stood still. In a 50 year career that began with Susie Q, and starred him in the roles of writer, performer, producer and label exec, Dale has always had an ear for new things, while keeping them grounded in the basics - as he says, 'keeping it real.' Back Down to Louisiana is a swampy romp through you-can't-go-home-again-but-maybe-you-can territory, with high-energy yet philosophical tunes like the title cut, Mighty Mississippi, and New Generation. These are balanced by the playful rockabilly of Bang Bang and ballads Roll With the Flow and ""This Love of Mine."" Musicians include Hargus 'Pig' Robbins, Joe Osborn, Joe Khoury, Nick Devlin, Kenny Brown, David Osborn, and Kenny Bill Stinson.
