Staffland Stages: The Light & Legacy of Christopher Stafford
Chapter One: The Roots & Branches of Feufollet
Featuring: Feufollet, Givers, Steve Riley, Brass Bed, Cedric Watson, and more Special Guests
Staffland Stages, an annual fundraiser concert series inspired by the contributions of Christopher Stafford and his beloved Staffland Studio, encourages audiences to dig deeper and examine more closely the facets that made up Christopher’s musical brilliance.
This first year’s intention is to explore and celebrate Christopher’s closest musical collaborations and connections- namely the work and artists associated with his longest running project, Feufollet.
Christopher’s life in music was diverse, colorful, collaborative, unexpected, sincere, and often held little allegiance to genre or convention. Though primarily known and celebrated for being a Cajun musician, Christopher’s musical taste and influences took on a range that included classic country and western, 60’s garage rock, new wave, folk, zydeco, blues…. The list goes on.
This two night performance will feature Givers, Brass Bed, Cedric Watson, Steve Riley and a reunion of Feufollet including Anna Laura Edmiston Chris Segura, Kelli Jones, Dr. Josh Caffery, Mike Stafford, Andrew Toups, Taylor Guarisco, Philippe Billeaudeaux, John Troutman, Andy Bianculli with special guests Elise Riley and Blake Miller.
