Big Chief Bo Dollis Jr. & the Wild Magnolias
When the beloved leader of the Wild Magnolias, Big Chief Bo Dollis', health began to wane, his son Gerard "Bo Jr." was ready to carry on the rich tradition of this Mardi Gras Indian Tribe. In the Seventies along with Monk Boudreaux, Dollis Sr. and the Wild Magnolias pioneered a sound that would later be termed Indian Funk. With a familiar call, an endearing charisma and his father's blessing, Gerard is set to bring Indian Funk to a whole new generation.
