Developing Lafayette has announced that a new music venue coming to Downtown Lafayette, called The Pearl, will soon open at 222 Jefferson Street in the former Shakers Night Club.

The venue may bring back the Rock & Roll musical scene to Lafayette with its ties to New Orleans music music, One Eyed Jacks.

This isn’t the first or, for that matter, the last New Orleans venue that we should expect to come to the Lafayette area, according to the post.
