Coco
Robicheaux is way past colorful. This swampland mystic has been a
fixture on the New Orleans music scene since way back when. The type of
performer who could have remained unrecorded if it weren't for a small
home-grown record label (Orleans) with a music lover at the helm (Carlo
Ditta) who made it happen. And now, with some clever distribution for
his first two albums, he's selling big in France and Germany, and has
had two successful European tours. Coco's exotic spiritland music (dubbed
"hippie voodoo blues" by Blues Revue Magazine) is indeed original stuff.
His latest album, "Hoodo Party" is on Orleans Records. Photo taken in
