The Ottawa Duo “Ball and Chain” is Michael Ball and Jody Benjamin. They’ve been life partners and musical partners since the early ’90’s. Jody and Michael have visited Louisiana dozens of times over the years, experiencing the musical styles, the dancing and the culture. Their repertoire centres around their love for country music and the dance music of SW Louisiana. They play a mixture of original and cover tunes leaning towards the earlier country that still sounded like country. Some of their favourites are Hank WIlliams, George Jones, and Roger Miller. Join Ball and Chain at OGF 2024 Gospel Hour, April 28 at 11am at Irene’s Pub, 885 Bank St.
