Louisiana’s finest, four-time Grammy-nominated band performs in the Adirondacks.
The Pine Leaf Boys.
Lake George’s free summer concert series continues in Shepard Park with the Pine Leaf Boys. Known as Louisiana’s finest, four-time Grammy-nominated, world-renowned band, they have made a name for presenting their own inimitable brand of Louisiana music with youthful exuberance.
Hailing from southwest Louisiana, the Pine Leaf Boys are known for their boisterous shows and thoughtful arrangements. Critics claim they have breathed new life into Louisiana music, reviving ancient songs and bringing them to the bandstand.

The New York Times described the Pine Leaf Boys as “… the link that connects the young and the old generations” and “ the best new, energetic, and fun Cajun band in a very long time.”
The Pine Leaf Boys play the old-fashioned dance hall standards while making it a priority to bring many of the more obscure songs of past masters into their repertoire and play them with enthusiasm.
The U.S. State Department invited the Pine Leaf Boys on six occasions to tour the world and present authentic music to Saudi Arabia, UAE, and Jerusalem in 2009 and again to Latvia, Denmark, and Slovenia in 2010, and a third time to the “Stan” countries in 2012 (Uzbek, Tajik, and Kyrgyz).
The variety of music and energy they release evolves through their shows, bringing multi-faceted angles to Cajun, Creole, and Zydeco. The Pine Leaf Boys present beautiful, powerful music and real Cajun music to the world, proving it is still thriving and full of life.
