On the vibrant morning of Mardi Gras, your eyes are treated to a visual spectacle of intricate beadwork as the Indians dance down the streets of New Orleans. However, it's the rhythmic heartbeat, known as "the rumble," that announces their arrival. Comprising seven accomplished musicians, The Rumble transcends the label of a mere band, offering an immersive experience into a distinctive facet of New Orleans culture.
Led by Second Chief Joseph Boudreaux Jr. of the Golden Eagles, the ensemble includes trumpeter Aurélien Barnes, trombonist José Maize Jr., bassist TJ Norris, guitarist Ari Teitel, keyboardist Andriu Yanovski, and drummer Trenton O’Neal. Their fusion of iconic New Orleans funk, reminiscent of The Meters and The Neville Brothers but modernized for the next generation, incorporates electrifying brass and showcases the visual splendor of the Black Masking carnival tradition.
The Rumble's inaugural album, "Live at the Maple Leaf," earned them a well-deserved GRAMMY for Best Regional Roots Album in 2024. Their live performances are symphonies of rich color and propulsive sound, featuring each member taking on vocal duties and engaging the audience with classic Mardi Gras Indian-style call-and-response chanting.
In paying homage to trailblazers like Wild Magnolias and Golden Eagles, with the latter featuring the vocal stylings of Boudreaux’s father, Monk Boudreaux, The Rumble becomes a torchbearer for preserving the legacies and traditions of their community. While deeply rooted in centuries-old traditions, the group injects new layers of depth into their performances, ensuring that the cultural flame continues to burn brightly for generations to come.
Attending a live show by The Rumble isn't just a musical event; it's an invitation to participate in a living culture. As bold and passionate culture-bearers, The Rumble offers audiences an opportunity to witness the evolution of a centuries-old tradition, ensuring its vitality and relevance for the next generation.
