This would create a large drift in the band, resulting in the band splitting up in 1979. While George desired to reform the group without Payne and Barrere, his death shortly after the split ended any chances of that.

Despite critical success, the band struggled to find an audience. As a result, Estrada left to join Music/CaptainBeefheart's band. Replacing him was New Orleans native Kenny Gradney, who brought Sam Clayton [[note]]brother of vocalist Merry Clayton, the female singer on [[Music/TheRollingStones Gimme Shelter]][[/note]] along on percussion, and George's high school classmate Paul Barrere was added as a second guitar. With the expanded lineup, ''Dixie Chicken'' saw the band's sound solidify into a more New Orleans oriented style.

[[caption-width-right:350:Classic Lineup: Left to Right-Bill Payne, Richie Hayward, Sam Clayton, Paul Barrere, Kenny Gradney; Seated-Lowell George]]
Little Feat is a Southern Rock band that formed in 1969 after frontman Lowell George was fired from [[Music/FrankZappa The Mothers Of Invention]]. The band is known for it's [[NeoclassicalPunkZydecoRockabilly eclectic sound]] that mixes Rock and Roll, boogie woogie, Funk, R&B, Americana, and Jazz Fusion.
Rounding out the original lineup was fellow ex-Zappa alumni Roy Estrada on bass, former The Factory bandmate Richie Hayward on drums, and keyboardist Bill Payne, who had tried to audition for The Mothers. The band released two studio albums, their SelfTitledAlbum and ''Sailin' Shoes'' which gained attention for it's surreal Americanic sound, musicianship, and George's songwriting.
Despite critical success, the band struggled to find an audience. As a result, Estrada left to join Music/CaptainBeefheart's band. Replacing him was New Orleans native Kenny Gradney, who brought Sam Clayton [[note]]brother of vocalist Merry Clayton, the female singer on [[Music/TheRollingStones Gimme Shelter]][[/note]] along on percussion, and George's high school classmate Paul Barrere was added as a second guitar. With the expanded lineup, ''Dixie Chicken'' saw the band's sound solidify into a more New Orleans oriented style.
While George was the FaceOfTheBand and initial leader and primary songwriter, overtime Payne and Barrere would gradually gain prominence due in large part to George's lifestyle. This would create a large drift in the band, resulting in the band splitting up in 1979. While George desired to reform the group without Payne and Barrere, his death shortly after the split ended any chances of that.
However, the surviving members would reform in 1987 to moderate success and have continued into the present day, even through continuing lineup changes, most notably the 2010 death of Hayward.
