With 9 albums, a Grammy Nomination, score contributions to the Oscar Nominated Film BEASTS OF THE SOUTHERN WILD, and support slots with ARCADE FIRE and VIOLENT FEMMES , Lost Bayou continues to swing wide from their Louisiana home base. In 2015 the Ramblers caught the attention   World Café, as #1 on “David Dye’s five favorite live music moments in and out of the World Café studio.
