Keenan Knight. He and Owen have been playing together for years. eta: Are you in the Mandeville area? We've probably crossed paths at some of their gigs.
From a couple years ago at the Howling Wolf. [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8CPd1KHYXDk]YouTube - "Keenan Knight" "Big Daddy'O" "Harpo Gelder"[/ame] Bean (Keenan) has some nice guitar work in this clip.
Morgan City's Ashley Matte. Relocated herself to Cali several years ago and has a couple of CD's out. Hasn't hit the big-time yet, but from the tone of this interview (followed by one of her original songs), she has a pretty good following out there.

Baton Rouge but my wife's family is in Slidell so we are around the area often. My father-in-law is probably the one you have crossed paths with. He is always watching them perform. Big, Irish, White beard, and wearing Buckeye gear or dressed in the spirit of Buffet.
Have to agree here. KWS totally sold out and changed his style to something closer to crap and got rid of the best thing that ever happened to that band (Noah Hunt). Ledbetter Heights, Trouble Is, and Live On are the only 3 cds worth owning IMHO.
