The Honey Island Swamp Band are an enthralling live band whose performances simply have to be seen to be believed.

They assert that great music is based on great songs - and they certainly offer these by the bucketload.

Four friends who were marooned in San Francisco after Hurricane Katrina devastated New Orleans formed the band.

After recording an eponymous EP in 2006, the group decided that the experience was such a positive one that they should continue the band when they eventually returned to New Orleans.

On February 28th, they are set to play a special show at the Old Rock House in St Louis, Missouri - and this should be a great night out for residents and holidaymakers alike.

Those who are staying at the Millennium Hotel St Louis will find that they are ideally placed to access the venue, as it is a mere five-minute drive from the venue.
