Underwriting. WWOZ Chief Financial Officer Beau Royster reports that underwriting income for the period of April 9, 2012 to present totaled $ 44,998. WWOZ hosted its third Peoples Health Outreach event held on March 29, 2012. The guests were given a tour of the WWOZ studios in 2 groups, watched a film at the National Jazz Park Museum in Dutch Alley and then had lunch at Galvez Restaurant overlooking the Mississippi River. Show host Sally Young, Major Gift Officer Lauren Del Rio, Underwriting Representative Carmen Post and volunteer Karen Smith were in attendance along with three staff members from Peoples Health. As a direct result of this event, three of the senior guests enrolled as WWOZ volunteers. Peoples Health is the major sponsor of WWOZ’s Annual Piano Night Benefit Concert event held each year at the House of Blues during Jazz Fest. 7. Swamp Shop. The Swamp Shop earned a record amount of income for the month of April--a total of $7,863 (a 205% increase from April 2011). $2,333 was received during the three- day "hallway" event during the station's brass pass pick-up times, and $382 was received at Piano Night. Sales so far this fiscal year total $42,967 (a 42% increase from 2011’s year total and a 53% increase from 2010’s year total), with a net income of $16,269. The shop is featuring several new items, and is well stocked for the remainder of the fiscal year, positively affecting total net income. 8. Digital Development. The Digital Deployment Team carried out a social media blitz during the French Quarter Festival and Jazz Fest to take advantage of WWOZ’s most highly trafficked time of the year. WWOZ’s website, Facebook and Twitter platforms were also refreshed for the April festival season. In addition the monthly newsletter, help email and greatly-expanded online music calendar were all maintained on schedule. Live event coverage of French Quarter Festival and Jazz Fest was provided with social media campaigns, photo highlights and daily recaps. New Facebook, Twitter and newsletter subscribers were cultivated throughout the active festival season with the goal of growing WWOZ’s contact lists. Moreover, WWOZ’s regular features, Takin' It to the Streets and New Orleans All the Way Live were supported through supplemental digital content. Real-time song information was maintained on the website even with WWOZ’s increased server load five times greater than normal. Notably, live video stream events for the Sync Up conference and the International Jazz Day concert were offered on the WWOZ website. Finally, the load on WWOZ’s audio stream services was monitored to ensure no interruption in streaming coverage of its live broadcasts from Jazz Fest. 9. CTIA. WWOZ has agreed to provide a live feed for the CTIA (International Association of Wireless Communication) media reception Wednesday, May 9, 2012 from 3:30 - 4:30 pm. Approximately 800 representatives of the press from around the world will be present at the reception. It is estimated that 40,000 attendees of this major technological conference being held on the heels of Jazz Fest will hear leaders in the field as well as public figures such as President Bill Clinton. 3 Friends of WWOZ Board of Directors Meeting May 9, 2012 General Manager's Report 10. National Association of Broadcasters. General Manager David Freedman attended the NAB Conference in Las Vegas April 14-19. The theme of the conference was “disruptive technology” and the ineluctable message was thek need for broadcasters to quickly adapt to multiple platforms and transmedia formats in an era of ever-shortening change cycles. The National Association of Broadcasters is the most important trade organization in the broadcast industry, and the strong sense of urgency that pervaded the conference signals a major change in the paradigm of an industry that is now experiencing the same challenges encountered in earlier years in the record and publishing industries. 11. Guardian of the Groove Award. WWOZ Show Host Jivin’ Gene Mark was honored with the WWOZ Guardians of the Groove Award this year at the Big Easy Music Award ceremonies held April 23rd at Harrah’s Theatre. Eric Ward received the award recognizing off-air volunteers. 12. Parking. On April 17, 2012, the French Market notified WWOZ that it had finalized its review of the issues raised by WWOZ regarding significant increases in rates and operational problems resulting from changes to our previous parking arrangements. WWOZ will be allowed to park two vehicles in the French Market Corporation’s Red Parking Lot during the hours of 9:30 p.m. to 6:30 am, seven days a week.

Chuckles, an amalgamation of all those who made this project possible. ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS My dissertation was made possible by fellowship support conferred by the University of Michigan Rackham Graduate School and the University of Michigan Institute for the Humanities, as well as ample teaching opportunities provided by the Musicology Department and the Residential College. I am also grateful to my department, Rackham, the Institute, and the UM Sweetland Writing Center for supporting my work through various travel, research, and writing grants.

I also remain indebted to all those who helped me reach this point, including my supervisors at the Hatcher Graduate Library, the Music Library, the Children’s Center, and the Music of the United States of America Critical Edition Series. I thank them for their patience, assistance, and support at a critical moment in my graduate career.

  • 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.

Renew Our Music, founded as New Orleans Musicians Hurricane Relief Fund, began issuing relief checks to New Orleans artists while floodwaters still covered parts of the city. Sweet Home New Orleans evolved in 2006 to provide case management and housing assistance to the musicians, Mardi Gras Indians, and Social Aid & Pleasure Club members struggling to return to their neighborhoods. In 2008, these agencies merged to form a holistic service center for the music community, assisting with everything from home renovations to instrument repair. As of the third anniversary of the storm, we have distributed $2,000,000 directly to more than 2,000 of New Orleans’ cultural tradition bearers. Our case workers assess clients’ individual needs to determine how our resources, and those of our partnering agencies, can most effectively assist them in perpetuating our city’s unique music culture.
