• This disc rumbles with interstellar funk! Higgins (currently with Dirty Dozen Brass Band) has performed with everyone from Widespread Panic to Michelle Shocked to Norah Jones. His exemplary New-Orleans-made drumming has made him one of the funkiest and highly sought musicians in the country. "In The Bywater" is a stunning slice of interplanetary fusion, murky funk, and complex compositions. Liberally spiced with open-ended improvs and jams, "In The Bywater" brings the flavor of modern NOLA funk to the forefront and if you close your eyes while digging this CD, you might be mentally transported to the city's Bywater neighborhood that this album owes it's name to. Features DDBB guitarist Jamie McLean plus Calvin Turner (bass), Andy Burgeois (keys), Scott Burgeois (sax), Big Sam (trombone), and Reynard Poche (guitar).
