Chris Almoada - Come To New Orleans

Review by Christina

Chris Almoada's album Come To New Orleans is a vibrant and captivating tribute to the rich musical heritage of the city. From the opening track, "Bourbon Street Blues," Almoada's guitar playing is both technically impressive and emotionally resonant. The album features a mix of original compositions and covers of classic New Orleans songs, including "When the Saints Go Marching In" and "Iko Iko." Almoada is joined by a talented group of musicians, including a brass section that adds an authentic New Orleans flavor to the arrangements. The album's standout track is "Mardi Gras Mambo," a joyful celebration of the city's most famous party. Come To New Orleans is a must-listen for fans of blues, jazz, and all things New Orleans.
