Voodoo Shoppe is the tenth release and the seventh studio release of Cowboy Mouth.

Cowboy Mouth has associated themselves quite strongly with the city of New Orleans and the music scene in that city. Voodoo Shoppe was the first album produced by the band after Hurricane Katrina, and generated a fair bit of interest in the album because of this. Two songs, Home and The Avenue address the diaspora after Hurricane Katrina, as well as pledging to return to New Orleans to rebuild. Portions of the proceeds were donated to Renew Our Music (formerly the New Orleans Musician's Relief Fund). John Thomas Griffith sits upon their board.[1]

They performed Home and Voodoo Shoppe as part of Starz' New Orleans Music In Exile[2] documentary. During an interview for that show, Fred LeBlanc admitted to not being able to move home, saying, "I live in the tour bus. We all live in the tour bus."
