Jude Acers’ French Quarter Music Festival Picks PLUS an NPR Tiny Desk Contest Video


It’s music festival season in New Orleans. This afternoon a couple of Jude Acers favorite local bands perform at the French Quarter Music Festival. Gal Holiday and the Honkey Tonk Revue perform at the Esplanade Stage at 2 p.m. while The Iguanas hit the Abita Beer Stage at 3:45 p.m. Tomorrow, Lynn Drury will take the GE Stage  at 11 a.m. You just might see a certain red beret wearing celebrity in the audience at these shows …

If you need help to get in the spirit, or you live far from New Orleans and want a taste of some New Orleans music, check out Ted Hefko & The Thousandaires’ submission into the 2019 NPR Tiny Desk Contest:
