Texas-born, Louisiana-raised pianist/vocalist/songwriter Marcia Ball is touring in support of her Grammy-nominated CD, Roadside Attractions. Her music mixes equal parts simmering soul fervor and rollicking Crescent City piano. Over the course of her career, Ball's infectious, intelligent and deeply emotional songs have won her a loud and loyal international fan base.

Ball will perform as part of the Second Annual "Boogie, Blues and Brews," a three-day event that brings together the best of blues, country, zydeco and rockabillly from all over the region to Walter Hall Park.
