Luther followed in his father’s footsteps, earning a reputation as a fearsome session guitarist before breaking out internationally as a songwriter and performer with North Mississippi Allstars, launched with his brother Cody in the late 90’s. They’ve earned multiple GRAMMY nominations, starting with ‘Shake Hands With Shorty,’ and most recently with ‘Up and Rolling,’ nominated for a 2021 Grammy Award for Best Contemporary Blues Album. Formed in 2018 as a duo, Riverbend Ramblers’ Eric Heigle (guitar, drums) and Andre Michot (accordion, vocals) pare cajun dancehall music down to its rhythmic foundations and build up from there. They solidified their sound as part of the Take Me to the River tour, playing alongside Dirty Dozen Brass Band, George Porter, Ivan and Ian Neville, 79ers, Monk Boudreaux and more. Neighbors in New Orleans’ Riverbend neighborhood, Eric and Andre were joined in 2019 by Bryan Webre and Johanna Divine, playing in and around Uptown/Carrollton. A collaboration with Luther Dickinson that same year became a regular gig with performances around the city.

Our mission is fostering art and culture in Acadiana.

Founded in 1975, Acadiana Center for the Arts (“AcA”) is a community-supported nonprofit organization that fosters art and culture in Acadiana. Since its founding, AcA has developed as a major force, shaping the future of public education and community development in South Louisiana.

AcA supports the creation of new works of art, exhibits, festivals, performances, and public art across an eight-parish region that includes Acadia, Evangeline, Iberia, Lafayette, St. Landry, St. Martin, St. Mary, and Vermilion Parishes.  

AcA aims to bring equitable access to the arts and supports fair compensation of artists. On average, AcA serves over 300,000 people annually and provides fair compensation to 2,700 artists.  

In 2013, the AcA merged with the Performing Arts Society of Acadiana (“PASA”), whose mission was to educate, inspire, entertain, and culturally enrich the people of south Louisiana by providing local access to a diverse range of the performing arts. This merger supported the vision of both organizations and provided much-needed support to PASA’s programs. Founded in 1989, PASA served as a leading voice in the performing arts in South Louisiana for close to three decades.
