SECRET CAJUN BAND
Bringing together the signature guitar, horn, and drum sound of the Third Wave Ska movement of the late ’80s and early ’90s, Secret Cajun Band formed out of jam sessions in the basements of 3 high schoolers in St. Louis, Missouri. The original trio of Miguel Figueras (guitar), Matt Nichols (trombone, vocals), Eddie O’Neill (trumpet) was soon joined by Erik Rogers (lead vocals, saxophone), Josh Alt (bass, vocals), and Andy O’Neill (drums). They extensively toured the Midwestern United States and beyond after the release of their first two studio albums, “Nightrain to Yiggitty Yiggitty” (1991) and “The Average Joe” (1992), later rounding out their discography with “Big House” (1994) and “Rearranging the Liquid Monkey” (1999).
