Much of the repertoire is composed by Rigney, but they mix in a few classics from the Cajun/New Orleans songbook.

He and Flambeau have forged a unique sound that blends American Roots styles into something original and HOT--mixing irresistible grooves with deep musicality and spectacular soloing. Rigney’s high-energy showmanship pulls the audience into his performances and makes them feel they are a part of the music and the show.
