About the Show
Herman LeBeaux is a percussionist, composer, arranger and educator — the New Orleans native emerged on the music scene in the early 1980s. LeBeaux holds degrees from Xavier University and the University of Massachusetts, Amherst.

Upon joining Allen Toussaint’s band in 1996, Herman has toured and been the drummer on several recordings and DVD projects namely, the Katrina-inspired "From the Big Apple to the Big Easy" and "Keep it Funky," chronicling the life and music of New Orleans funk masters Allen Toussaint, Art Neville and Dr. John. Next, taking his talents to the big screen, Herman was a cast member for the Oscar winning movie, "Ray," where he played the drummer in the Ray Charles’ band
