A successful film composer and director—he was nominated for an Academy Award in 2013 for scoring the Oscar-winning documentary Inocente—Keegan DeWitt has a new indie rock band, Wild Cub, that will make its first appearance at the Voodoo Music Experience in New Orleans on Halloween weekend.
Wild Cub’s debut, Youth—an ethereal, fluorescent late-night record—is available now.
This will be your first performance at Voodoo, but not your first show in New Orleans. What do you enjoy about the city?
We played House of Blues not long ago, and every time I’m there I love it more and more. I like that New Orleans is so walkable, particularly from venue to venue. That makes it easy to head out for the night and kind of dig in.
