Music is integral to the soul of New Orleans, permeating all aspects of life.
And after living here for awhile, one begins to realize there's pretty much one big band here - there just isn't a stage large enough for all the musicians to fit on at once . . . Bars, clubs, more bars and more clubs . . . Along with bands and bars, this city abounds with artists. There is a certain freedom of personal expression allowed here not often found in most other cities, and our artists are well loved and respected.
