ROSIE LEDET AND THE
ZYDECO PLAYBOYS RETURN TO THE VAIL-LEAVITT MUSIC HALL!
FOR a while, it seemed as though audiences might be singing the blues instead of hearing them in Riverhead next weekend. The board of the Vail-Leavitt Music Hall, which has run the Riverhead Blues and Music Festival since 2006, and the Riverhead Chamber of Commerce both sought permits to hold the same festival in the same place at the same time. Local news reports referred to political squabbling, and Newsday reported that perhaps there would be no festival at all.

Like so many other French kids raised in rural southwest Louisiana, she paid no particular attention to all the zydeco music that was around her in her formative years; even though her parents had tried to raise her with a healthy respect for zydeco music, the music held little appeal for her as a kid. But one day, after attending a zydeco dance when she was 16, hearing Boozoo Chavis, she was smitten. click here for full details...

Jessie
Haynes has spent her life playing music across the east
and west coasts, and occasionally internationally as
well. Lately she’s made a home for herself on the east
end, heading up a concert series at a beautiful old

Hall is an antique theater run entirely by volunteers,
which may just have a ghost or two amongst its velvet
curtains and balconies. Jessie feels like her
involvement with the Vail has a measure of fate in it.
