Since 1988, Bag Of Donuts has entertained and "offended" thousands of people, stealing their hearts and other people’s songs. Over the years they have done their best to create colorful shows and entertain their fans with wild stage antics, outlandish costumes, and strange renditions of popular songs, winning multiple awards along way. In 1998, they went into the studio to record an original CD aptly titled "Glazed And Confusedâ€, and followed up a few years later with a Live CD recorded at the House Of Blues in New Orleans. They have played thousands of gigs over the years and have been lucky enough to travel to places like Jamaica, Cozumel and all the way up to cold Minnesota to play. In 2003, the culmination of years of hard work brought them to the New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival which they one day hope to play again. New Orleans is a part of Bag Of Donuts just as Bag Of Donuts is a part of New Orleans.
The band covers a wide variety of music from the 1960's through today's alternative, including TV show and movie themes. The band is made up of four characters. John Duplantis is the easily lovable front man who can make an audience leave their worries at the door and enter a world of sheer stupidity, hilarity, and rock and roll bliss. Kevin George is the thunder behind the storm, clowning on the drums, and is the main song writer of the band. Jonathan Hoerner is the Kiss look-alike lead guitarist who makes sure the crowd doesn't forget the show is rock and roll and comedy. Jerry Christopher, more stupidity and jaw-dropping bass playing. These four members have many years of road training and entertainment under their belts and are sure to keep any crowd partying all night long. The Donuts need to be seen to be appreciated! Twenty years and counting of entertaining and enthusiastically representing New Orleans throughout every show. They are guaranteed to make an audience of any ages laugh, rock out and enjoy themselves provided the audience has beating hearts.These last 20 years would not have been possible without their loyal fans and friends here in New Orleans and beyond. Thanks for the support.
