Sam Rey draws more on the sounds of New Orleans and North Mississippi resulting in a funky, guitar driven groove exemplified by songs like March On, and Sakes Alive. There's a folk element running through here as well. The Totem 2 are Steve LaCroix and Danny Kimball, the former rhythm section from the Red Beans and Rice Revue.<br /><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-size:78%;">Photo by Dwayne Fatherree</span><br /></span>jill meauxhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12933392815095468160noreply@blogger.com
