Feb. 4th

So I've been up late, slaving away at getting this mix together for this week's post. I will be hitting the road again tomorrow to do some digging, but wanted to make sure that I got this up before I left. It is a mix of essential Mardi Gras music (the 1st of 2 mixes, part 2 will be next week) just in time for the festivities (more on my Mardi Gras party here in Austin next week!). My first heavy New Orleans mix ever made was named Big Chief, so it felt appropriate to give this mix the subtitle of Big Chief pt.2 . I hope yall dig it and have a safe and fun Mardi Gras this year! See you with the second installment next week!
