First Annual Crazy Sista Beach Party
Crazy Sistas across the Southeast are set to party in Gulf Shores, Nov. 1-3
When it comes to throwing a crazy-fun party, Lucy Buffett is your go-to girl, or rather go-to Crazy Sista. The creator of LuLu’s at Homeport Marina is bringing the party to her restaurant complex in Gulf Shores with the First Annual Crazy Sista Beach Party, Nov. 1-3.
“I’ve always been known as the crazy sister in the family,” says Buffett, “She’s my alter ego, and she likes to have fun! Crazy Sista Beach Party is weekend of fun, great Southern food and live music; a gathering of like-minded crazy soul sistas right on the beach at LuLu’s. It will be the perfect weekend for a girl’s (and the men who love them) getaway,” she adds.
The music line-up includes Grammy Award winners Tedeschi Trucks Band and Marcia Ball, plus other well-known artists like Charmaine Neville, Eric Lindell, Larkin Poe, Sirius Plan featuring Donna Hall of Wet Willie, Shawna P & The EarthFunk Tribe, Adam Holt & Jillian Jensen, and Joyful’s Spirit of New Orleans Choir. Additional bands are still being added.
Tickets for the weekend are $50 for general admission and $150 for VIP, which includes a ticket for the VIP viewing area and LuLu’s Goodie Bag.

Known as Crazy Sista for good reason, Lucy marches to the beat of her own drum; she plays nice, but usually by rules she has bent, broken or reinvented.
