About the Album

The Groove Krewe

A South Louisiana recording group led by writer/producers Rex Pearce, Nelson Blanchard, and Dale Murray.  Their songs have been in movies, on national TV, and on the radio. They have assembled a group of excellent studio players to complement their musical contributions to this record. In New Orleans, Mardis Gras clubs are known as Krewes. Therefore, they chose to name the group, The Groove Krewe. Their last record, The Groove Krewe featuring Nick Daniels III was played nationally and internationally. This new CD is more blues oriented and contains radio friendly tunes that are sure to please.
