SUMMER'S LAST CHANCE TO DANCE: NEW ORLEANS LIVE

This Labor Day weekend we bring out the best from the clubs in New Orleans. Recorded during the 2012 New Orleans Jazz Fest weekends, this music is sure to get your barbeque hopping and your picnic popping. We’ll visit Preservation Hall for songs and stories by Steve Earle and Tao Seeger, plus a special tribute to late New Orleans trumpeter John Brunious. Then we head over to the Howlin’ Wolf for a late night set by the 2012 Grammy winning Rebirth Brass Band.
