Two behemoths of New Orleans music and venerable keysmen who passed away in 2019 get a loving tribute on this night. There will never be another artist like voodoo blues rocking, R&B rolling Dr. John, an avant soul with a grizzly distinctive vocal and wide-ranging résumé that included a vast solo repertoire, collabs with the likes of Ringo Starr and Leon Redbone (who also passed in 2019), and even the theme song of the Curious George TV series. Art Neville changed the face of NOLA jazz and R&B, helping usher in the funk with his siblings-led band, the Meters, which are credited (along with James Brown) with being one of the genre’s founders. The Dr. John set will feature Jeff Fielder and Andy Stoller, while Art Neville’s set will be helmed by the Meter Maids (Wayne Horvitz, Mike Stone, Jeff Fielder, and Gerald Turner). by Leilani Polk
