Mississippi Heat's Page

About Me:

Harp player, bandleader for Mississippi Heat. The band was created in 1991 with my brother, Michel Lacocque as our band manager and agent. Bob Stroger, Robert Covington, Jon MacDonald and myself were the original members. Together we recorded Straight From The Heart; Robert sang and played drums on that one. Deitra Farr joined us after Robert (RIP) passed away; she sang on the next two CD's. We began touring widely with her, Bob Stroger, Billy Flynn, James Wheeler and Allen Kirk. Many CD's followed with great musicians such as Kenny Smith (who has been with me for 10 years now), Carl Weathersby (who appears on our last 4 CD's and who is so much a part of our sound), Katherine Davis, Inetta Visor, Lurrie Bell, George Baze (RIP), Chris Hambone Cameron, Zora Young, Chris Winter, Giles Corey, Steve Howard and many more.
I love to perform, I love the fraternity with musicians, I love to travel and I love to write new material. I still can't believe I am doing this...
