The act
Formed in 2007, out of New Orleans, LA, Hurray for the Riff Raff leaned on the catalog they built into a live act with national reach.
Hurray for the Riff Raff is the project of Bronx-born, New Orleans-based songwriter Alynda Segarra. Their 2017 album The Navigator and 2022's Life on Earth pushed the project from americana into more politically explicit territory. The 2024 record The Past Is Still Alive was a critical breakthrough, landing on multiple year-end lists.
The venue
The Southern Café & Music Hall sits at 103 South 1st Street, a 300-capacity intimate listening room operated by Starr Hill Presents under booker Danny Shea.
