"Photo of Les Kerr taken in the Gulf of
Mexico at Dauphin Island, Alabama by Alan Whitman sometime during the last
century. No, the guitar did not get wet and Les really was in the water."
When Les Kerr invites his Gulf Coast songwriting friends to appear at his Fresh from the Gulf concerts at Nashville's Bluebird Cafe, it's more fun than a Mobile Bay Jubilee!. You don't even have to put on your "Jubilee Britches" to enjoy the freshest catch of tunes just in from the Gulf! The pictures below show some of the performers and highlights from past Fresh from the Gulf shows! |
