Esben Just og Tricia Boutté spiller sammen i fælles forståelse for den ånd og tradition, der kommer ud af alt, hvad der har med New Orleans at gøre. Esben har dyrket og elsket "the big easy” siden sit første besøg der i ´89. Tricia er født i New Orleans og tilhører en af byens musikfamilier, der har fostret navne som Lilian og John Boutté. Ligesom dem er Tricia sanger og en personlighed, der ikke kan sætte et musikalsk ben forkert, når det kommer til at udtrykke og videregive sin kærlighed til musikken, som den findes og dyrkes i New Orleans.
