The Subdudes and Little Toby Walker are set for NOLA night at the Landmark on Main, Thursday, April 28 at 8 p.m.

It's a powerful evening of foot stomping music steeped in the sounds of the bayou! Over the course of 25 years and ten albums, The Subdudes have quietly become one of America's national music treasures. The New Orleans-formed group is a living encapsulation of American music, a vibrant cauldron of sounds that stirs together meaty grooves and jazzy dynamics, soulful R&B swagger, easy vocal harmonies, cheeky rock 'n' roll attitude and folky social consciousness - not to mention some of the sharpest musicianship and ensemble playing you'll ever hear from any five musicians.

Led by singer/guitarist Tommy Malone and accordionist John Magnie, The Subdudes draw most of their inspiration from the sounds of their native New Orleans, blending blues, gospel, funk, and R&B with their own harmony vocals; their sound is also notable for the band's substitution of a tambourine player, Steve Amedée, for a drummer. Tim Cook rounds out the band on bass.

Opening this rollicking celebration of "Nawlins" style is Long Island's own Blues Master, Little Toby Walker. Internationally and nationally acclaimed as a roots music fingerstyle guitar wizard, Walker blends the styles of blues, ragtime, country, bluegrass, rock and old time jazz into his own unique style. Jorma Kaukonen of Hot Tuna and the Jefferson Airplane says "Flat out... you have to hear this great musician... I'm blown away."
