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. -

Pleasure Atlas
s New Orleans’ post-Hurricane Katrina recovery of the late richard campanella A 2000s morphed into a rather unexpected economic and cultural renaissance in the 2010s, new faces appeared in new areas, new conversations circulated, and new pleasure spaces began to open. The pleasure changes reflect a mounting trend affecting the downtowns of most major American cities, and New Orleans, for all its alleged distinction, is no exception. It is the spatial diffusion of gentrification, and it is drafting the latest cartography in this city’s ample atlas of pleasure. atlas Few American cities make space for pleasure like New Orleans. In Richard Campanella, a geographer with the some cases the space-making is a byproduct of the architectural Tulane School of Architecture and a Monroe past: witness the use of iron-lace balconies, porches, and stoops for Fellow with the New Orleans Center for the relaxing and interacting between private and public space, or the Gulf South, is the author of Bourbon Street: A History (2014), Bienville’s Dilemma: A Historical lovely neighborhood squares and neutral grounds (medians) that Geography of New Orleans (2008), Geographies draw bench-sitters and domino-players.

Cool Music Scene: Louisville, Kentucky
Print http://www.gibson.com/en%2Dus/Print/?PrintAliasPath=/en-us/Lifestyle... Cool Music Scene: Louisville, Kentucky Jonah Bayer | 02.21.2008 Forget about Seattle or Brooklyn. Over the past few decades Louisville, Kentucky, has quietly constructed one of the strongest music scenes in the country. Check out a few of the city’s most popular acts as well as a couple of newcomers. My Morning Jacket My Morning Jacket are perhaps the biggest band from Louisville, Kentucky, in the past decade—and the only band we know of that can unite jam band fanatics, indie rock purists, and classic rock enthusiasts alike. While all of the band’s albums are stellar, we recommend checking out their breakthrough 2003 album It Still Moves, which features “One Big Holiday,” a song that can be considered the “Free Bird” for the iTunes generation. Oh, and if that doesn’t impress you, Netflix a copy of their live DVD Okonokos, which beautifully showcases the cinematic grandeur of the band’s live performances. 1 of 4 2/25/2008 12:57 PM Print http://www.gibson.com/en%2Dus/Print/?PrintAliasPath=/en-us/Lifestyle... VHS Or Beta Like all great scenes, the Louisville music community is extremely incestuous. In fact, My Morning Jacket’s guitarists Jim James and Carl Broemel both guest star on VHS Or Beta’s latest album Bring On the Comments. That’s not to say that the bands sound the same—VHS Or Beta’s dance-influenced rock jams are more at home in a trance club setting than the Burning Man festival—but both acts have successfully elbowed aside any genre restrictions and helped to unite seemingly disparate scenes with their music. -
