The Rumble

Description

The Rumble is a GRAMMY®-nominated New Orleans ensemble that brings the power, rhythm, and pageantry of Mardi Gras Indian culture to the stage. Featuring seven GRAMMY®-nominated musicians, the band is led by Big Chief Joseph Boudreaux Jr. of the Young Eagles and blends modern New Orleans funk in the lineage of The Meters and The Neville Brothers with electrifying brass, deep grooves, and call-and-response chants rooted in Black Masking traditions. Their debut album, Live at the Maple Leaf, earned a 2024 GRAMMY® nomination for Best Regional Roots Album, followed by a 2025 nomination for Stories From the Battlefield. Drawing inspiration from trailblazing groups like the Wild Magnolias and Golden Eagles, The Rumble delivers a live experience rich in color, sound, and communal energy.
