Here is an interesting artist that's new to me, and I wanted to share his music.

Awesome thread.  Nothing like seeing some of these artists play on their own terf at the Maple Leaf, Howlin Wolf, or Tips.  I second Walter Wolfman Washington and Jon Cleary as both extremely awesome musicians.  Also want to throw out Kermit Ruffins (trumpet player who used to play at Vaughn’s north of FQ).  Galactic is still one of my favorite bands, and have grown in popularity, as has Trombone Shorty.  Definitely two artists to check out if you haven’t heard them. 

Thanks Dserota, I'm interested in all things New Orleans. I've been led to believe that rich and famous people live in LA or New York, but I think quite a few live in New Orleans, and why do successful musicians from there stay there. It's for sure there is something about New Orleans that has not met my eye.

This man takes me back to New Orleans, and I've never been there;

Rok, your last post reminded me of this lady;

The music and dance on that post were truly hypnotic, I'm waiting for another one half as mesmerizing.

FYI,
According to wiki, a person can get their own second line parade for around 600 dollars.  I don't think you even have to be dead.   Stay tuned for Rok's second line , in Treme, of course.   OP on Bone. :)

Great clips O-10.   Sooo much energy.   They are so enthused, and playing so loud,  it's hard to play in tune.   But who cares.

Cheers
