FAREWELL, DAVE; HOWDY, BEN!
 It is with no small measure of sadness that we bid farewell to our sax player, Dave Mills. After more than 10 years with the band, Dave is moving on. He will be missed. But we think we've found an able replacement -- Ben Reece from the Funky Butt Brass Band. Ben has played with us numerous times over the years, and we are proud to welcome him as a full-time, full-fledged member of this strange stew called Gumbohead!

GUMBOHEAD is a St. Louis-based collective of rhythmic rapscallions and tuneful tricknologists who find great joy playing music born in and influenced by New Orleans and southwest Louisiana – zydeco, funk, blues, jazz, r&b and more.

Gumbohead has opened for several legendary Louisiana artists including the Neville Brothers, Ivan Neville and Dumpstaphunk, the Dirty Dozen, Terrance Simien, Chubby Carrier, Jon Cleary and Buckwheat Zydeco. Recently, the band played a private fundraiser in New Orleans with John Boutte, Paul Sanchez, Papa Grows Funk, Rebirth Brass Band and The Radiators and other NOLA artists to help raise more than $24,000 for the New Orleans Musicians Clinic.

Every gig is a full-blown, bead-tossing Mardi Gras throwdown, guaranteed to make you shake everything you've got! To get on our e-mail list, enter your information below, and we promise to keep you posted on our whereabouts.
