Great music spots in Baton Rouge?

Anyone know any places we could go to hear some good Louisiana-style music? I was in NOLA earlier this year and experienced some great music there and am hoping for more of the same in Baton Rouge!

Sounds like a cool place, Scott. Thanks for sharing! By the way, I'm a community manager here and I've helped you highlight the place in your answer on a map! In the future, you can do this yourself as you answer a question by simply typing the @-symbol followed by the name of the place. Take a look at your map next to your answer :)

Thank you for the recommendations Leslie! If you had to choose between Boudreaux & Thibodeaux's and Boutin's, which one would you choose or are both worth a visit?

Leslie
Boudreaux's and Thibodeaux's, its downtown BR and if you get tired of it you can always go to City Bar, The Office, or Puncher's (they don't play cajun music but I've always had fun here). The casino's are downtown also.

John
Thank you so much Leslie! I can't wait!

Leslie
You're welcome, hope you have a great time!
