That's how it all began. Six years ago when a tornado blew through Shreveport, J found Matt, standing on his porch, shortly after a tree decided to test the landlord's homeowner's policy. "He looked like a good time," remembers J, after spotting Matt immediately following the disaster. Amidst cracked countertops and scattered shingles, conversation ensued and the two musicians became friends.

It's more than a bit ironic that a powerful, hard-to-predict weather system in some sense marks the creation of Dirtfoot. Their music can be as dizzying as a twister, volatile and uproarious.

Dirtfoot is an all original band out of Shreveport, LA. Though all of their instruments are acoustic, their energy and ingenuity will make you swear they are using something else. Featuring instruments ranging from an acoustic guitar, banjo, upright bass, pots n' pans, drums, bells, saxophone, and beancan shakers, this band has a truly engaging and eclectic sound! It is like a good gumbo- you have some growling vocals, upright bass and percussion that makes a good, dark, dirty Louisiana roux mixed with some meaty rhythms, combined with fresh offerings from the guitar and banjo that are like okra and tomatoes picked from your backyard garden, and topped with the hot n' sexy spice of the saxophone and jazz style drums and a little something magical and indescribable, and you have Dirtfoot-a delicious, spicy, dirty band that will make you stomp your feet, shake your ass and yell like a lunatic on a full moon night.

"A mosaic of sound. The soundtrack to mental collapse. A celebration of noise. This is what the band Dirtfoot is." J D Ventura - Shreveport Times
