On Friday afternoon we were paid a visit by one of our favorite Louisiana country artists, the pride of Hammond, Todd O'Neill.

Todd was in town to play the annual Rebel Fest at Teurlings Catholic High School, a benefit for the school.

We invited him in to catch up on the exciting new things going on with his career. Todd broke the news to our audience that he just signed what's called a "developmental deal" in Nashville, with hopes of signing on with a major record label.

He also has recently recorded a handful of new songs and one of those is his latest single "Hurts When I Breathe".

A big thanks to our friends at the Lafayette Regional Airport and the Fly Lafayette Club for presenting the Live in the Lobby series. If you haven't already, make sure you join the Fly Lafayette Club. It's free to join and you could win some great prizes!
