Louisiana Dance Hall presents:

Let’s head on over to the Twist and Shout …

Welcome to Louisiana Dance Hall, WRIR’s home for Louisiana and NOLA music! We’re kicking off today’s show with a classic track from Mary Chapin Carpenter, who played a great show Saturday night at The National. Luckily, she included “Down at the Twist and Shout” as one of her closing songs — a high-energy tribute to Louisiana music and dance halls! After that, we’ll proceed into our usual mix of zydeco, brass, funk, rock and a little bit of Cajun …. thanks for joining us, and for your support of WRIR!
