Deslondes
About
Bringing their own brand of down-home, rootsy twang to the blues, The Deslondes are a band of rough-edged yet deeply tuneful troubadours. Though their story began in the Pacific Northwest, it was in New Orleans that they truly found their voice—shaping a laid-back but deeply committed sound that blends country, blues, rock & roll, and swamp pop into something warm, honest, and unmistakably their own.
Formed from a collective of songwriters and multi-instrumentalists, the band built its identity through collaboration, shared influences, and a love for American roots traditions. Their early albums—The Deslondes (2015) and Hurry Home (2017)—captured a loose, naturalistic approach, while later releases like Ways & Means (2022) and Roll It Out (2024) expanded their sonic palette without losing that easygoing, dusty charm.
The Deslondes’ music feels lived-in and human—songs that unfold with lyrical warmth, subtle grooves, and the kind of authenticity that can’t be rushed or manufactured.

In the Room
When The Deslondes step into Tigre Island Room, the vibe settles into something slow, steady, and soulful. Their sound rolls through the space like a warm Southern breeze—unhurried, heartfelt, and deeply rooted.
It’s the kind of show where you lean in, listen close, and let the songs do their work. Honest, understated, and quietly powerful—exactly how this kind of music is meant to be experienced.
