At the New Orleans Jazz Museum - 400 Esplanade Ave, New Orleans

In the 3rd Floor Theater

American Routes, hosted by Nick Spitzer, is a weekly two-hour public radio program produced in New Orleans, presenting a broad range of American music — blues and jazz, gospel and soul, old-time country and rockabilly, Cajun and zydeco, Tejano and Latin, roots rock and pop, avant-garde and classical. Now in our 20th year on the air, American Routes explores the shared musical and cultural threads in these American styles and genres of music — and how they are distinguished.

Danny Barker, born on January 13, 1909, in New Orleans was a great jazz musician and a wonderful storyteller. And Barker, through his Fairview Baptist Church band saved and revived brass bands in New Orleans.

The Danny Barker Tribute Band will include Detroit Brooks (banjo/guitar and vocals), Ricky Monie (piano), Alonzo Bowen (saxophone), Richard Mouton (bass), Herman LeBeaux (drums), and Freddy Lonzo (trombone), and Jamil Sharif (trumpet).
