Funky But It's Nu Awlins
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.
"Funky But It's Nu Awlins" is an all-out celebration of music from
the Big Easy. All-star luminaries from New Orleans past and present
join the good doctor for this funk-filled program of letting loose
as only the Mardi Gras faithful know how.
Join us as BAM celebrates its landmark 150 year anniversary.
