"OPELOUSAS HAYRIDE- a nod to the Louisiana Hayride of old, the series will feature regional front-runners in country-western/honky tonk, Cajun & Creole, Western Swing with occasional national touring acts...stay tuned!"

This first event speaks directly to the heart of every honky tonk and early country loving fan - Blayze Viator in front of the all-star band, Blayze and Saddles!

- fast-rising country star Courtney Granger!,

and special guest star, Kelli Jones-Savoy!

And, what or where is The Whirlybird? The Whirlybird is not a public venue, it is a private hideaway of cultural mirth and amusement. The owners claim, "it is an underground movement fiercely dedicated to the pursuit of celebrating with good friends and family!" They also like to say, "The Whirlybird is an art experience, a creative collaboration of personally rewarding expressions of culture, love, fun. . ." However it is described, get ready for a cultural adventure.
