Earl “Washboard” Sally Biography


Louisiana, a magical place with a unique culture found nowhere else. Creoles and Cajuns, alligators and crawfish, red beans and rice. All these things helped give rise to the special chemistry of the Sportsman’s Paradise. These things also shaped the experiences of Earl Sally. Now, after a 30 year musical career, he’s letting those influences find a voice in his first CD. The new CD “Home Grown” features 10 songs including classic Zydeco tunes and soon to be new fan favorites.

Joining Earl on this effort are well known Zydeco frontmen Terrance Simien, Chubby Carrier, Geno Delafose and Curley Taylor. Also making major contributions are his current band mates, Corey Duplechin, Randy Ellis and AJ Bellow.

On the new CD, Earl had a vision for what he wanted. HOME is a reference to his upbringing. Three of his special guests are friends that he has known for most of his life. HOME also is a place for family and as anyone that has been to Louisiana knows, friends are family. The contributions of his family of friends add a special touch to the music. GROWN applies to the journey he has made as a musician. Starting when he was 13 and practicing with his musical influence Clinton Broussard to that skinny kid jumping off the stage in the movie "The Big Easy" to the polished entertainer that we see today, Earl has perfected his style playing numerous cities, states, countries and continents.
