This album is the centerpiece marking our 20th anniversary and the 300th of the city of New Orleans. With the tremendous support of the New Orleans Convention and Visitors Bureau we asked our two most recorded artists, who have performed periodically with each other for 25 years, to collaborate and bring in dozens of great musicians to help. Irvin and Kermit bring out the best in the other, and we get to witness the result in this outstanding record! They say time flies when you are having fun and this has been the trip of a lifetime. We can’t wait for the next twenty and we hope you join us in our love and appreciation for the music and traditions of this great city!

  • Neville Brothers -- the first Family of New Orleans Music -- Has Vowed Not to Return to New Orleans
    Dec. 15, 2005-- Cyril Neville boarded Amtrak's City of New Orleans train with a full head of steam. He joined singer-songwriter Arlo Guthrie earlier this month for the first leg of a 12-day journey from Chicago to New Orleans, playing concerts along the way to raise funds for victims of Hurricane Katrina. Neville, however, won't be on the train when it rolls into his old hometown. He won't be going home at all. Neville, 56, percussionist-vocalist and youngest member of the Neville Brothers -- the first family of New Orleans music -- has vowed not to return to New Orleans. During a heartfelt conversation before embarking on the train journey, Neville explained he and his wife, Gaynielle, have bought a home in Austin, Texas. Cyril Neville joins his nephew Ivan Neville, as well as the Radiators and the Iguanas as popular New Orleans acts who have settled in Austin. Some even perform in an ad hoc band known as the Texiles. They sing a different song about the promised recovery of New Orleans. "Would I go back to live?" Neville asked. "There's nothing there. And the situation for musicians was a joke. People thought there was a New Orleans music scene -- there wasn't. You worked two times a year: Mardi Gras and Jazz Fest. The only musicians I knew who made a living playing music in New Orleans were Kermit Ruffins and Pete Fountain. Everyone else had to have a day job or go on tour. I have worked more in two months in Austin than I worked in two years in New Orleans.

Mayfield is a versatile trumpeter, bandleader, cem- poser and arranger, recording artist, a passionate spokesman for the rich history and cultural significance of Jazz and the city that birthed it. Appointed the Cultural Ambassado r of the City of New Orleans in 2003 by the United States Senate, Congress and other governmental agencies, his name has become synonymous with the still-unfolding legacy of America's only indigenous music. Even after Katrina-especially after Katrina, which took the life of his father, Irvin Mayfield, Sr.-this tireless Renaissance man considers Jazz nothing less than the manifestation of all that American democracy represents .

  • Rhythm, Dance, and Resistance in the New Orleans Second Line
    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles “We Made It Through That Water”: Rhythm, Dance, and Resistance in the New Orleans Second Line A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in Ethnomusicology by Benjamin Grant Doleac 2018 © Copyright by Benjamin Grant Doleac 2018 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION “We Made It Through That Water”: Rhythm, Dance, and Resistance in the New Orleans Second Line by Benjamin Grant Doleac Doctor of Philosophy in Ethnomusicology University of California, Los Angeles, 2018 Professor Cheryl L. Keyes, Chair The black brass band parade known as the second line has been a staple of New Orleans culture for nearly 150 years. Through more than a century of social, political and demographic upheaval, the second line has persisted as an institution in the city’s black community, with its swinging march beats and emphasis on collective improvisation eventually giving rise to jazz, funk, and a multitude of other popular genres both locally and around the world. More than any other local custom, the second line served as a crucible in which the participatory, syncretic character of black music in New Orleans took shape. While the beat of the second line reverberates far beyond the city limits today, the neighborhoods that provide the parade’s sustenance face grave challenges to their existence. Ten years after Hurricane Katrina tore up the economic and cultural fabric of New Orleans, these largely poor communities are plagued on one side by underfunded schools and internecine violence, and on the other by the rising tide of post-disaster gentrification and the redlining-in- disguise of neoliberal urban policy.

Both outsiders coming to New Orleans such as Ornette Coleman and Cannonball Adderley and locally born musicians such as Alvin Battiste, Ellis Marsalis, and James Black have contributed to this music. These musicians have influenced later players like Steve Masakowski, Shannon Powell, and Johnny Vidacovich up to more current musicians like Terence Blanchard, Donald Harrison, and Christian Scott. There are multiple reasons why New Orleans modern jazz has not had a greater profile. Some of these reasons relate to the economic considerations of modern jazz. It is difficult for anyone involved in modern jazz, whether musicians, record

  • "Born in a Second Line": Glen David Andrews Shares New Orleans Musical Heritage with the World
    COVER STORY "Born in a Second Line": Glen David Andrews shares New Orleans musical heritage with the world By Dean M. Shapiro Over a long, stellar career filled with honors, awards and international accolades, Glen David Andrews has just added another milestone to his list of accomplish- ments: his own namesake record label! The New Orleans born-and-raised trom- bonist and vocalist with possibly the most distinguished musical lineage in the city’s history, is touting his latest release, a digital album titled “Live in My Living Room” on the Glen David Andrews Records label (a subsidiary of Louisiana Red Hot Records). Recorded live in his French Quarter living room during the COVID-19 quarantine, the album is already making the rounds and available for downloading from Andrews’ Facebook page and website. Backed by the six-piece Glen David Andrews Band plus himself on vocals, Andrews penned five of the disc’s eight cuts. These include the lead track, “Treme Hideaway,” a tribute to a music club recently opened by his older brother, Grammy Award-winning drum- mer Derrick Tabb of the Rebirth Brass Band, in the city’s musically rich 6th Ward where the two of them grew up. As he explained in the accompanying liner notes, “This album was done to give you the experience of my live shows. Due to the current situation we couldn’t go in the studio to record this record, but nothing can stop the Spirit of the New Orleans musicians so we decided to record it live.” Despite being unable to perform in clubs, go on tour or play for special events, Andrews has not been idle.

  • Happy International Jazz Day from New Orleans with Herbie Hancock!
    scpr.org http://www.scpr.org/blogs/newmedia/2012/04/30/5853/happy-international-jazz-day-new- orleans-herbie-ha/ Happy International Jazz Day from New Orleans with Herbie Hancock! Only in New Orleans could you get hundreds of people to wake up early on a Monday morning for a jazz concert - especially after three days of intense music and partying for the first weekend of the 2012 New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival. Well, sort of. As Mayor Mitch Landrieu said in his brief remarks opening this sunrise concert kicking off the first-ever UNESCO International Jazz Day, people kept telling him that they couldn't believe all these folks woke up for this. "I say, 'We never went to bed!'" he quipped, only half-kidding. You can watch video of the entire event on the International Jazz Day site here. The day started at 6:30 a.m. with drummers and dancers on the cobbled ground of Congo Square in what is now Louis Armstrong Park, the very spot where drummers and dancers gathered generations ago, slaves on their day off, free people of color and others drawing on the African and Haitian traditions they'd brought along the way. Over time, that developed into more elaborate musical forms, taken up by the pianists entertaining in the brothels and parlors of the neighboring Storyville development around the turn of the 20th century, and then out to the streets with the brass bands. That became jazz, and this very spot was its birthplace. The full evolution of the form played out in the course of the next hour.

  • The Long History of Indigenous Rock, Metal, and Punk
    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles Not All Killed by John Wayne: The Long History of Indigenous Rock, Metal, and Punk 1940s to the Present A thesis submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Master of Arts in American Indian Studies by Kristen Le Amber Martinez 2019 © Copyright by Kristen Le Amber Martinez 2019 ABSTRACT OF THESIS Not All Killed by John Wayne: Indigenous Rock ‘n’ Roll, Metal, and Punk History 1940s to the Present by Kristen Le Amber Martinez Master of Arts in American Indian Studies University of California Los Angeles, 2019 Professor Maylei Blackwell, Chair In looking at the contribution of Indigenous punk and hard rock bands, there has been a long history of punk that started in Northern Arizona, as well as a current diverse scene in the Southwest ranging from punk, ska, metal, doom, sludge, blues, and black metal. Diné, Apache, Hopi, Pueblo, Gila, Yaqui, and O’odham bands are currently creating vast punk and metal music scenes. In this thesis, I argue that Native punk is not just a cultural movement, but a form of survivance. Bands utilize punk and their stories as a conduit to counteract issues of victimhood as well as challenge imposed mechanisms of settler colonialism, racism, misogyny, homophobia, notions of being fixed in the past, as well as bringing awareness to genocide and missing and murdered Indigenous women. Through D.I.Y. and space making, bands are writing music which ii resonates with them, and are utilizing their own venues, promotions, zines, unique fashion, and lyrics to tell their stories.
