Description

Crossroads began in 2002, in Bossier City, Louisiana, when founding member, John Kavanaugh decided to follow his dream of bringing together talented musicians of differing backgrounds to form a powerful, cohesive show band. Tailor made for the local casino market as well as the many festivals and major events of the area, Crossroads regularly plays to crowds throughout the Ark-La-Tex region.

Crossroads is and always will be about the music. Whether it be the New Orleans style brass, hot Texas guitar, or the incredible four and five part harmony, each member brings the best of his own style into the mix, creating a veritable crossroads of rock, blues, jazz, swing, and soul that explodes into the audience with a powerful energy that has to be experienced to be fully appreciated.

Crossroads has the diversity to adapt their performances to any event or venue. From large festivals and casino events to mid-size rooms and clubs to weddings and private events, Crossroads always brings the best show for the occasion and an exciting and interactive experience for all.
