The beloved washboard master and singer with the Tin Men, the Palmetto Bug Stompers, Washboard Rodeo, and his own blues trio was also a cofounder and namesake of the legendary Chaz Fest, which ran for 11 years as the bohemian 9th Ward alternative to Jazz Fest. With a kit that adds woodblock, coffee cans, and a front desk bell to the traditional washboard, he shines in any musical setting, and always brings a smile to the face of anyone hearing him. Let’s see who’s smiling after Chaz sits in with the Troubled Men.
