Wednesdays @ 11PM
With Allen Vella and Susan Shaw
Shake off the midweek blues and spice up your Wednesday nights with All That Gumbo! Susan and Allen stir up a two hour tasty mix of music from New Orleans and Southwest Louisiana — jazz, funk, rhythm & blues, and zydeco — all seasoned with their own special sauce.
About The Hosts: Allen Vella is a longtime lover of New Orleans music and culture and is thrilled to be able to spread the love through music on the radio. He has been co-hosting All That Gumbo for almost 8 years, and is grateful that his runnin’ pardner Susan Shaw invited him to collaborate on the radio, a dream come true.
Susan Shaw first caught the New Orleans fever at Mardi Gras when she was just ten years old, enchanted by marching bands and the trumpet of Al Hirt. Returning on family visits year after year, she fell even more deeply under the city’s musical spell — from the bands in the streets to the hip sounds of WWOZ radio. That love affair never ended and she wanted to share the magic of the music. Susan spent five years broadcasting at WKZE and fourteen more at WIOX. In Allen Vella, she found a kindred musical spirit, and together they’ve made All That Gumbo a funky, sometimes surprising, and always joyful call and response.
