Amanda Shaw-After Katrina

Drs. Luis and Andrea Espinoza Season 5 Episode 5

How much can you hold? 

20 years’ worth of memories? 

What would you do if there were lyrics to express what we, as native New Orleanians, have lived for the past 20 years…after Katrina. Listen in.

We sit with the phenomenal Amanda Shaw as she shares stories, dreams and her mission to bring JOY through her talented voice and fiddle!

She encourages us to sit back, kick off our shoes and be AT HOME wherever we are are-knowing that we belong, that we are seen and that we must keep constant vigil over where the universe needs us to be. 

A very timely interview as we knock on the door reminding us of what we all GAINED in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina-strength and emotional resilience. 

Amanda Shaw-her charm, her passion, her genuine presence will fill your heart as you listen to this beautiful artist. 

She LIVES her music-the songs of the bayou, Cajun music that you can’t wash from your soul! 

A songwriter, vocalist, fiddle phenomenon, entrepreneur and more-she is a treasure to the industry of life. Firmly established in the Louisiana Music Hall of Fame, and with her sights on more in Nashville, her energy is unmatched! 

She shares her journey with the brilliant Emmy and Oscar nominated musician, songwriter and producer, Kent Wells. 

Sit back, learn and laugh with us as we pretend it’s a “Louisiana Saturday Night” with THE Amanda Shaw-because we are STILL HERE- “After Katrina”.
