Being a part of the music community in Minnesota is a gift to every artist, listener and participant. The stage of Vieux Carré is rich with history and whispers of musicians past. Today the tradition continues with a varied schedule highlighting local talents in many different genres with a focus on jazz, soul, blues, and the magic of each. Patrons and artists share the room to commune in the celebration of life and each other.
Take the guitar styles of Jimi Hendrix and Stevie Ray Vaughan and mix it with the hypnotic grooves of John Lee Hooker and Muddy Waters and you get “Crooked Dice.” With the smoldering hot guitar of Mike O’Malley and Joey Flip, the hard driving bass of Brett Mousseau, and the always soulful groove of John Caserotti, Crooked Dice is the real deal.
