For over 40 years, Dr. John has taken the exuberant and raucous
sound of New Orleans under his wing, preserving its lore and
channeling it through his own style of rhythm and blues. This
spring, the good doctor comes to BAM with an extraordinary
entourage of musical guests for an artistic residency, offering
three distinct perspectives on his formidable career.
In "A Louis Armstrong Tribute," Dr. John leads an all-star
celebration of New Orleans' greatest musical son, Louis
Armstrong.
