Frank Malfitano Executive Producer Syracuse Jazz Fest Productions, Inc. Rebirth Brass Band Saturday June 1Oth - 6:3O pm - National Grid Main Stage Whether seen on the critically-acclaimed HBO series “Treme”, or at their legendary Tuesday night gig at New Orleans' famed Maple Leaf Bar, the Grammy Award-winning Rebirth Brass Band is a true New Orleans institution. In the wake of the sometimes-stringent competition among New Orleans brass bands, Rebirth is the undisputed leader of the pack, and they show no signs of slowing down. Formed in 1983 by the Frazier brothers, - Philip and Kieth - the band has evolved from playing the streets of the French Quarter to performing at major jazz festivals and stages all over the world. While committed to upholding the tradition of brass bands, they have also extended themselves into the realms of funk and hip-hop to create their signature sound. “Rebirth can be precise whenever it wants to,” says The New York Times, “but it’s more like a party than a machine. It’s a working model of the New Orleans musical ethos: as long as everybody knows what they’re doing, anyone can cut loose.” Following their Grammy Award-winning Release, Rebirth Brass Band is at it again with “Move Your Body”, an infectious, groove-laden collection ofthe hip-shakers unit's talent sure for penningto saturate unabashed the dance party �loor. starters. Rollicking originals like "Who's Rockin, Who's Rollin'?” and "Take 'Em to the Moon" reaf�irm the band's position on the brass band throne while the rasta-esque "On My Way" and leave-nothing-to-the-imagination lyrics of "HBNS" showcase approved by the Frazier brothers themselves, of a sultry Tuesday night spent dancing on their home court at the Maple Leaf Bar in New Orleans. Boasting a mastery of Rebirth's signature "heavy funk" sound, Move Your Body pushes and swings, leaving behind an 11 track thumbprint, Rebirth's most recent Syracuse appearance was at OCC's critically-acclaimed AAC Legends of Jazz Series, where they performed two SRO sets of original material, and classic charts by Duke Ellington, Miles Davis and Professor Longhair. - Flea, Red Hot Chili Peppers “Just saw THE REBIRTH BRASS BAND, unbelievable. hard as hell, free as a ray of light, there is not a band on earth that is better. stunning.” - Ani "...saw DiFranco the Rebirth Brass Band playing at the Maple Leaf Bar on Oak Street, and it changed my life. It was one of these transcendent musical experiences."

"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.

Jake Shimabukuro Rebirth Brass Brand
WELLS FARGO JAZZ JAKE SHIMABUKURO | REBIRTH BRASS BAND JAKE SHIMABUKURO College of Charleston Cistern Yard June 1 and 2 at 9:00pm PRESENTED BY WELLS FARGO JAKE SHIMABUKURO (ukulele) is on a mission to take the ukulele places it’s never been. Armed with lightning- fast fingers and revolutionary playing techniques, his repertoire spans jazz, blues, funk, classical, bluegrass, folk, flamenco, and rock—turning the ukulele, as he sees it, into an “untapped source of music with unlimited potential.” The New York Times recently noted that “the innovation in his style stems from an embrace of restrictions: the ukulele has only four strings and a limited range. He compensates with an adaptable combination of rhythmic strumming, classical-style finger-picking and fretboard tapping.” Two of his two biggest influences weren’t musicians. He credits Bruce Lee and Bill Cosby for creating the foundation of his art. “Bruce Lee’s philosophy on martial arts was that it was simply a form of human expression,” he says. “And he didn’t believe in sticking to one ‘style.’ And Bill Cosby brought joy to millions with his stories. He connects with an audience like no other.” Shimabukuro began his music career in earnest performing at local Honolulu venues and coffee shops. Although a few well-received album releases helped him earn some fame in Hawaii, his career skyrocketed when a YouTube clip of him performing “While My Guitar Gently Weeps” in Central Park went viral—over eight million views and counting. He has gone on to perform with Béla Fleck and the Flecktones, Bette Midler, Yo-Yo Ma, Cyndi Lauper, Ziggy Marley, Levon Helm, and Jimmy Buffett.

Where the Locals Go
Where The Locals Go Stone Pigman's Top New Orleans Picks Where The Locals Go 1 The lawyers of Stone Pigman Walther Wittmann L.L.C. welcome you to the great city of New Orleans. Known around the world for its food, nightlife, architecture and history, it can be difficult for visitors to decide where to go and what to do. This guide provides recommendations from seasoned locals who know the ins-and-outs of the finest things the city has to offer. "Antoine’s Restaurant is the quintessential classic New Orleans restaurant. The oldest continuously operated family owned restaurant in the country. From the potatoes soufflé to the Baked Alaska with café Diablo for dessert, you are assured a memorable meal." (713 St. Louis Street, New Orleans, LA 70130 (504) 581-4422) Carmelite Bertaut "My favorite 100+ year old, traditional French Creole New Orleans restaurant is Arnaud’s. It's a jacket required restaurant, but has a causal room called the Jazz Bistro, which has the same menu, is right on Bourbon Street, and has a jazz trio playing in the corner of the room." (813 Bienville Avenue, New Orleans, LA 70112 (504) 523-5433) Scott Whittaker "The food at Atchafalaya is delicious and the brunch is my favorite in the city. The true standout of the brunch is their build-your-own bloody mary bar. It has everything you could want, but you must try the bacon." (901 Louisiana Avenue, New Orleans, LA 70115 (504) 891-9626) Maurine Wall "Chef John Besh’s restaurant August never fails to deliver a memorable fine dining experience.
