Happy Jazz Fest!

 


Though I am not there, the Fest feeling is still in the air.

As always, WWOZ will be broadcasting live from the Fairgrounds, and whether you are a Fest regular or have never been at all, the sounds, the vibe and the music are always wonderfully captured by WWOZ, give or take the occasional technical difficulties.

Today's broadcast lineup:

11:15am-12:10pm  Tin Men from Blues Tent

12:30-1:25pm Brother Tyrone and the Mindbenders  from Blues Tent

1:45-2:40pm Robert Finley from Blues Tent

2:40-3:40m John Boutte from WWOZ Jazz Tent

4:05-5:20mp Lakecia Benjamin from WWOZ Jazz Tent

5:45-7:00pm Kenny Barron Trio from WWOZ Jazz Tent

Don't forget, that is on New Orleans time.

Listen here!

  5. Finally got free from work for a bit and turned in just in time to hear John Boutte singing Brickyard Blues. My day has improved considerably. YYR!
