Band Quote by Chris Rose
“I'm not going to lay down in words the lure of this place. Every great writer in the land, from Faulkner to Twain to Rice to Ford, has tried to do it and fallen short. It is impossible to capture the essence, tolerance, and spirit of south Louisiana in words and to try is to roll down a road of clichés, bouncing over beignets and beads and brass bands and it just is what it is. It is home.”
![“That [Louisiana culture] was all very new to me. I read books and watched documentaries, just trying to immerse myself.” quote by Kofi Siriboe](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/4a1/kofi-siriboe-24373_book_that-louisiana-culture-was-all-very-new_1448067.jpg)
