Concerts at the Abita Springs Opry

The Abita Springs Opry is devoted to preserving Louisiana's indigenous music in all its guises. Arrive early (around 5 pm-ish) and join the folks who've made a ritual of enjoying gumbo, hot dogs, and homemade pastries, not to mention the pre-show sound checks and front porch concerts. It all adds up to the good ol' family atmosphere that the Opry strives for. This month, the lineup includes the Steve Anderson Group, Maris and Ducros, River City Boys, and Bayou Liberty Jazz Band. Don't miss the post–show jam session at the Abita Brew Pub, just up the street. 7 pm–9 pm. $20. abitaopry.org.
