Description:
The Pulaski Theatre presents Big Al and the Heavyweights in Concert on Sunday, March 30, 2025.
Join the New River Blues Society as they bring blues sensation Big Al and the Heavyweights to the Pulaski Theatre for a rousing afternoon of high energy blues with opening band Holland, Holland & Hanes.
Big Al and the Heavyweights perform a cajun spiced blend of American roots music with funk, blues, jazz, zydeco and country. Originally formed in 1996 as the Unknown Blues Band with founding members Al Lauro, Warren Haynes (Allman Brothers Band and Gov't Mule), and pianist Rick Gergen (Sweethearts of the Rodeo). Of course, Warren is no longer in the band, but Big Al has formed a solid array of musicians that features Louisiana Music Hall of Fame pianist vocalist, Wayne Lohr along with guitarist vocalist extraordinaire Marcel Anton and renowned California bassist vocalist Mark Parsons.
Big Al and The Heavyweights were inducted into The Alabama Blues Music Hall of Fame in Birmingham on April of 2023. The band tours extensively playing venues and festivals throughout the United States.
Big Al and the Heavyweights' live performances are family oriented, energetic and most of all fun. This is a show you don't want to miss!
