SUMMARY:Preservation Hall Jazz Band with Soggy Po Boys
DESCRIPTION:At a moment when musical streams are crossing with unprecedented frequency\, it’s crucial to remember that throughout its history\, New Orleans has been the point at which sounds and cultures from around the world converge\, mingle\, and resurface\, transformed by the Crescent City’s inimitable spirit and joie de vivre. Nowhere is that idea more vividly embodied than in the Preservation Hall Jazz Band\, which has held the torch of New Orleans music aloft for more than 60 years\, all the while carrying it enthusiastically forward as a reminder that the history they were founded to preserve is a vibrantly living history. \n  \nPHJB marches that tradition forward once again on So It Is. The album redefines what New Orleans music means today by tapping into a sonic continuum that stretches back to the city’s Afro-Cuban roots\, through its common ancestry with the Afrobeat of Fela Kuti and the Fire Music of Pharoah Sanders and John Coltrane\, and forward to cutting-edge artists with whom the PHJB have shared festival stages from Coachella to Newport\, including legends like Stevie Wonder\, Elvis Costello and the Grateful Dead and modern giants like Beck\, The Foo Fighters\,  My Morning Jacket\, and the Black Keys. \n \n\nwith Soggy Po Boys and special guest\, Annie Linders\nThe Soggy Po Boys\, native to New England\, have quickly become an institution. They are spreading the good news of New Orleans music across the northeast and beyond\, playing at concert halls and street corners; music festivals and burlesque festivals; bars and libraries; wherever the party requires. Part of the beauty of New Orleans music is that it’s celebrated and appreciated wherever it goes\, from the street to the theater. \n\n\n\n\nThe Po Boys formed in 2012 to shake the walls of a local club on a Fat Tuesday but have honed their sound and become more than a Mardi Gras centerpiece. Exploring the vast musical traditions of New Orleans and expanding their repertoire to look beyond NOLA jazz\, the band includes traditional Caribbean tunes (it’s been said that New Orleans is the northernmost city in the Caribbean)\, as well as Meters funk\, soul\, and brass band / street beat music.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n “…These guys have done their homework\, worked it out on the bandstand and put in the hours in the studio. It all adds up to a party you can bring with you when you want to treat your friends to a real good time.” -Ben Schenck of New Orleans’ Panorama Jazz Band”. \nThere are a myriad of traditions that flow into New Orleans culture just as there are tributaries that feed the Mississippi\, and the Po Boys are eager to explore what makes the music of New Orleans so damn special. You’ll hear the heavy influence of the New Orleans sound across the band and in the stories told by their original tunes. Despite the scope of its sound\, the outfit is only seven people\, and thrives on the interplay and group dynamics that bring this music to life. \n\nThe Soggy Po Boys are:    \n     Stuart Dias (vocals\, guitar) \n     Eric Klaxton (clarinet/soprano saxophone) \n     Nick Mainella (tenor saxophone) \n     Josh Gagnon (trombone) \n     Mike Effenberger (piano) \n     Scott Kiefner (upright bass) \n     Brian Waterhouse (drums/percussion) \n \n \nand special guest\, Annie Linders (of Annie and the Fur Trappers)\n \n\n\n\nAnnie is a St. Louis-based trumpet player\, trombonist\, singer and bandleader. She is the bandleader of traditional jazz and swing band Annie and the Fur Trappers. Annie and the Fur Trappers have been touring around the country since 2018\, and have played a number of music festivals including the Big Muddy Blues Fest\, Musikfest\, and The St. Louis World’s Fare Festival. Annie plays in other ensembles including the Jane Doe Revue and the Diamond Empire Band\, and has recorded with various artists including Violet and the Undercurrents\, Kabomba!\, and the Gateway Jazz Project. She studied music education at the University of Missouri-Columbia\, and enjoyed playing and recording in various ensemble in Columbia. When Annie is not playing the trumpet\, she enjoys playing hardcourt bike polo\, hiking\, and paddling Missouri’s rivers. \n \n\nReservations\nTable and blanket reservations are non-refundable\, but can be transferred to another available date in the 2024 season. \nPlease Note: General Admission Donations do not include reserved seating. This is a way to make your gate donation in advance. \nTable reservations seat four.  \nBlanket reservations are placed in the blankets-only area of lawn and do not allow for chair placement. \nCelebrate our 50th Anniversary Season with us all summer long!
