"Everyone is turning out for the shows, It's great feeling knowing the fans along with new ones are still out there supporting us" says Lou. Lou wants to carry on the tradition of performing the songs the way they were meant to be. "I put my own style to these great songs without insulting the audience or the writer, after all they know how the songs are supposed to sound! " You can bet Lou Derr & Bootleg will put on one heck of a show. From opening concerts to doing a family BBQ. You can count on some good "Rockin' Country Music". We still do smaller venues, you can't help it, we just have to wing it with out the whole band. Lou Derr & Bootleg are your BEST BET!

Let Lou Derr perform your next Event. You won't be sorry! Southern Rock to traditional Country Lou will please any audience, any age. " I try to stay in tune with my kids as to what they like so I get to listen to all sorts of differnt styles of music, I let a little of it rub off into my songs on stage especially if my kids are at the show.
