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. This is a new model for local support of this community, and, with the guidance of Frederick Weil of Louisiana State University, it has enabled a new level of analysis of New Orleans’ tradition bearers. The following report is a summary of our initial findings that we will use to direct resources to our clients as effectively as possible. We hope that it will help you see how far we’ve come in three years, and what remains to be done to ensure that the networks of cultural transmission in New Orleans are fully repaired, and our music community returns stronger than ever. Sweet Home will continue to serve the city’s music community, and share information about its progress. Jordan Hirsch Kim Foreman Executive Director SHNO Board President At the time of the storm, approximately 4,500 musicians, Mardi Gras Indians, and Social Aid & Pleasure Club members lived in neighborhoods throughout New Orleans. Many of these cultural tradition bearers, the source of the city’s unique rhythms and rituals, learned their craft from friends and family in their homes, as well as churches, clubs, and schools in their area. While these traditions inspired people all over the world, they served a local social function, uniting and strengthening communities. New Generation Social Aid & Pleasure Club second lining prior to Hurricane Katrina Pre-Katrina Distribution of Tradition Bearers New Orleans’ music culture helped drive the city’s all-important hospitality industry, attracting crowds at festivals, conventions, and special events. Indigenous artists served as ambassadors for New Orleans, and were held up as symbols of our civic identity. While this status was rarely tantamount to financial comfort, many artists subsisted thanks to affordable housing and involvement in neighborhood-based social support networks. Despite economic challenges, tradition bearers had succeeded for generations in perpetuating the city’s unique culture. Pre-Katrina Residences of SHNO Clients Extent of Flooding The flood following Hurricane Katrina in 2005 devastated the affordable housing stock and scattered the support networks in many of these communities. Displacement of New Orleans Tradition Bearers After the Flood In the aftermath of the flood, music communities across the country welcomed members of New Orleans’ diaspora. Our organization distributed nearly $400,000 in cash assistance between October and December of 2005 to help sustain nearly 700 of these men and women while they were unable to return to their homes. insert caption: With its residential neighborhoods devastated, the source of New Orleans’ traditions, and the future of a unique American culture were in question. Joseph Allen, Second Chief of the Red White, & Blue Mardi Gras Indians Photo © Erika Goldring In 2006, second line parades brought flashes of life to decimated neighborhoods and Mardi Gras Indians attracted crowds in the streets lined with debris. Some returned to the city just long enough to participate in these rituals before returning to temporary lodging outside the area. Sweet Home started developing our collaborative case management system to help these tradition bearers return home where their art could continue to unite and strengthen their communities, as it had for generations before the flood. Rebirth Brass Band Photo © Erika Goldring, In January 15, 2006, we helped make possible the largest second line parade in history. Throughout the year, we served mor than 550 new clients, and began underwriting live performances in New Orleans. Sweet Home’s intake center opened in the Treme neighborhood in June 2007, steps from Congo Square, the historic cradle of New Orleans music. At that time, we estimated that two-thirds of the city’s tradition bearers had returned to the metro area, and that at least 1,500 of them had yet to secure stable housing. Since then, Sweet Home has served more than 400 clients, leveraging almost $1,000,000 in direct assistance for z in resources from our partners and in-kind services. In so doing, we developed a detailed profile of the community. Photo of Kid Simmons Band SHNO Current Client Residences (Sample) Since Sweet Home New Orleans opened its intake center, musicians have returned to New Orleans at more than double the rate of the general public. When the waters receded, we faced the question, Will New Orleans Returned to Pre-Katrina Residence music survive? Three years after the flood, with help from SHNO, 75% of musicians are back in town and have Moved to New Location answered Yes. Uninhabited Pre-Katrina Residence Extent of Flooding Resettlement Patterns of New Orleans Tradition Bearers Current Residence We are progressing to a Uninhabited Pre-Katrina Residence new phase in the recovery of our music Jefferson Numbers community. While a Northshore Numbers critical mass of artists West Bank Numbers has returned to the metro area, many neighborhoods that have been incubators of homegrown talent are still struggling to rebuild. In heavily flooded parts of the 8th and 9th wards for example, tradition bearers have retained only 29% of their pre- Katrina residences. Because the transmission of our indigenous art forms is tied to specific neighborhoods, these patterns represent a challenge to the ultural continuity of the city. Ensuring Cultural Continuity To facilitate artists’ return to their traditional neighborhoods, Sweet Home New Orleans will offer hundreds of thousands of dollars in housing assistance to our clients in the next year. We will also invest in grassroots cultural education efforts, such as Mardi Gras Indian sewing classes held in clients’ homes, to create more opportunities for the post-Katrina generation to learn from community elders.

Today, with fewer residents, conventions, and tourists in town audiences are scarce and gigs pay less money. The cost of living in New Orleans is up but the music community’s income is down; earning a livelihood though music is harder than ever. Annual Household Income Annual Expenses Number of Clients Number of Clients Annual Income Per Client Balance: Income minus Expenses Number of Clients Number of Clients To help offset this imbalance and give artists opportunities to build new audiences, we will continue to underwrite live local performances and help clients pay for the instruments and materials they need to generate income. We also plan to connect qualified tradition bearers with paid teaching positions to help them supplement their earnings while educating young artists. Photos of Tommy Singleton, Bruce “Sunpie” Barnes, and Herreast Harrison Sweet Home New Orleans has succeeded in helping New Orleans’ music community return to the metro area. Our task now is to expand our tradition bearers’ opportunities to earn a living and share their cultural knowledge with the post-Katrina generation. We intend to accomplish this by continuing to provide direct assistance to those in need and expanding the reach of our case management system. In the coming year, we will give our clients access to free legal counsel, and streamline their access to financial literacy training and a variety of professional development services offered by partnering agencies. This culture is not waiting for a savior; it is an agent of New Orleans’ salvation. By supporting the men and women who practice it, we can advance our city’s economic and social recovery. Sweet Home New Orleans is determined to empower our tradition bearers to help rebuild our city, and we invite you to join the effort.

  • 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.

  • "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.
