who sings opening song for ncis new orleans
Boom Boom (John Lee Hooker song) A variety of artists have recorded the song, including: Rufus Thomas, Mae West, Shadows of Knight, CCS, Dr. Feelgood, Tony Joe White, Disco Tex and the Sex-O-Lettes,[21] Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band, Big Head Todd and the Monsters (whose version was chosen in 2014 as the theme song for NCIS: New Orleans, and is played at Carolina Panthers home games when a touchdown is scored) and the Oak Ridge Boys. "Boom Boom" was the first studio recording by Eric Clapton, who recorded it as a demo with the Yardbirds in 1963, and which was released as a single in the Netherlands and Germany in 1966. ZZ Top later used similar lines ("how-how-how-how") to those found in "Boom Boom", on "La Grange".[7]
List of NCIS: New Orleans characters Dwayne Cassius "King" Pride (Scott Bakula) is a Supervisory Special Agent. He is also a New Orleans native and former Jefferson Parish deputy sheriff. He is also a long-time friend of Leroy Jethro Gibbs, the main character of NCIS; both were part of a group of NCIS agents known as the "Fed Five" who gained fame for apprehending Spencer Hanlon, aka "The Privileged Killer". [For years, the Privileged Killer was erroneously believed to be Victor Lourde, who had been framed by a member of the "Fed Five," Dan MacClain. When MacClain is murdered, the teams discover his frame-up and the reason for it. Their investigation leads them to the Hanlon father and son.] He was initially assigned to the Marine Corps Support Facility in Algiers, Louisiana.[1] He and his now-estranged wife Linda used to live in the Lower Garden District. His daughter, Laurel, is a music major at Louisiana State University. In "Chasing Ghosts" and "Le Carnivale de la Mort", it is revealed that Pride's father, Cassius (Stacy Keach), is incarcerated in the Gretna Correctional Facility. As of the beginning of season two, Dwayne and Linda officially divorced. With the money Dwayne got from selling their home he paid for Dr. Wade's assistant Danny's college, Laurel's college, a place for his father (if he makes parole), as well as buying a fixer-upper bar.[2][3] Pride has the second highest arrest record in the history of Jefferson Parish's Sheriffs Office.[4] In season three, Pride personally recruits Agent Gregorio to his team.
