The Wild Tchoupitoulas
The Wild Tchoupitoulas were originally a group of Mardi Gras Indians formed in the early 1970s by George "Big Chief Jolly" Landry.
Landry, with his mixed African-American, Caucasian, and Native American (Choctaw) heritage, had been an active performer in the Mardi Gras Indian styling for a number of years.
The group is named after the Tchoupitoulas tribe who also gave their name to Tchoupitoulas Street.
With help from local New Orleans musicians The Meters, The Wild Tchoupitoulas recorded an eponymous album, which featured the "call-and-response" style chants typical of Mardi Gras Indians.
Vocals were provided by Landry, as well as other members of his Mardi Gras tribe.
Instrumentation was provided in part by members of the Meters.
The album also notably featured Landry's nephews, the Neville Brothers, providing harmonies and some of the instrumentation.
The album was produced by famed New Orleans writer-musician-producer Allen Toussaint.
While not a financial success, the album and The Wild Tchoupitoulas' style was well received critically and the experience working with them encouraged the four Neville brothers to continue performing together as a group.

Led by vocalist Susan Ottaviano, the band also includes keyboardists Ted Ottaviano( no relation to Susan), Lauren Roselli and Jade Lee.
The band gained its first exposure as the opening act for two Depeche Mode tours in 1985 and 1986.
The group has been described by the" Houston Press" as" forward thinking" for lyrics dealing with sexual orientation and gender roles.
Their biggest success came on the US dance charts, placing seven singles in the" Billboard" Hot Dance Club Play chart between 1985 and 1993.
The group's largest exposure on pop radio was with the song" Pretty Boys and Pretty Girls", one of the first songs to openly address the AIDS epidemic.
The song, from the album" Lullaby", was originally the second half of a medley with the group's version of Mike Oldfield's" Tubular Bells," the 1973 instrumental that served as the eerie theme music of the classic horror film" The Exorcist".
Edited down to single length," Pretty Boys and Pretty Girls" became Book of Love's only
Hot 100 entry, peaking at no. 90 in 1988.
Book of Love's music has been featured in various films and television over the years.
The band's song" Modigliani( Lost in Your Eyes)" was featured in the 1987 John Hughes film" Planes, Trains& Automobiles" as well as in the" Miami Vice" episode," God's Work".
In 1991, the song" Sunny Day" was featured in the movie" The Silence of the Lambs", in a scene in which band member Lauren Roselli had a cameo with Jodie Foster.
Also, the song" Enchanted," from the band's" Lovebubble" album, appeared on the soundtrack to the 1993 film" Naked in New York", and the song" I Touch Roses," was featured in the 2000 movie" American Psycho."
Since their active years, Book of Love's songs" Boy" and" I Touch Roses" have been rediscovered by new audiences.
Both their original versions and subsequent remixes are heard in both dance clubs and on alternative radio stations.
In February, 2001 — sixteen years after its first dance chart entry — Book of Love had its first# 1 hit on the US dance chart when" Boy," a track originally from its debut album, was remixed and re-released as the lead single from their greatest hits collection,.
In 2013, the band reunited for a string of club tour dates and has been working on new material.
