In A Mellow Tone
Wednesday May 1st, 2024 with Ian M, Natalie McGrath, Heavy Ben
New Orleans Jazz Festival
Are "jazz" artists performing at the New Orleans "Jazz" Festival? nojazzfest.com is apt as there is pretty much "no jazz". Classic rock, new country, trendy pop, food vendors, art vendors, item vendors, $200 up to $2,000 per day only with Apple Pay / Google Pay / Samsung Pay... all presented by big oil company SHELL.
Amid the malodorous corporate presence, hosts Natalie, Ian and Ben found a few jazz artists on the bill. We'll be in the studio live tonight for two hours of more jazz than no jazz.
