About Me

Our mission is quite simple at Backstage on the Bayou. We're here in the hopes of bringing a fun and informative medium in which to talk about the arts and entertainment community in Southeast Louisiana. Talk radio is back in a big way, both in its literal translation on AM and FM, and through new mediums such as satellite radio, HD radio, live Internet broadcast , and pod casting. On several occasions throughout recent history in New Orleans, attempts have been made to create and maintain a local entertainment talk radio show. It has always proven to be a struggle for those involved for one reason or another. Now more than ever, this is something that we need as an arts community and it's something the general public is more interested in and excited about. In a recent study of what top industries New Orleans should reinforce and develop in order to recover and thrive, the arts and entertainment industry was included. The rebirth of the local cultural economy is continually garnering national attention. We strive to bridge the gap between the arts and entertainment community and the general public, providing a forum for current issues, a means to promote local works and artists, and bring people an up close and personal look (or listen) at all of the excitement "behind the scenes" of local film, theatre, music and events via our independently produced pod cast and web site. Backstage on the Bayou is your source for all of the latest and best coverage of the New Orleans arts & entertainment scene.We feature blogs, interactive polls, contests, photos, and video in addition to our weekly podcast in which we cover New Orleans film, theatre, music, events, and current issues surrounding the arts and entertainment industries locally.E-mail: [email protected] MySpace: myspace.com/backstageonthebayou Web: http://www.backstageonthebayou.com
