Grammy Nominated Professor Louie & The Crowmatix to play NY. The group came into existence preparing songs for Aaron Professor Louie Hurwitz' studio productions for the Rock 'n' Roll Hall of Fame group The Band. Professor Louie collaborated with The Band for over fifteen years co-producing The Band CD's Jericho, High On The Hog and Jubilation in the 90's. He also produced CD's with solo members Rick Danko (who gave him the moniker Professor Louie) Levon Helm and Garth Hudson. The Crowmatix are the backing group for these solo CD's. Professor Louie has produced Graham Parker, Commander Cody Band and many more artists. Professor Louie & The Crowmatix repertoire is steeped in rock 'n' roll, blues, Gospel and American roots music, and features a compelling collection of original and traditional tunes.
