'5 things to know' is a weekly feature highlighting different parts of the WWOZ world that you may have missed this week, including unique WWOZ programming and video, plus New Orleans events, artists, places, features, and more. For the week ending July 15, 2016 and the coming days:

1) It's been a disturbingly tumultuous week in the world. One corner of unrest is in Baton Rouge, where police continue to clash with non-violent protestors following the shooting death of Alton Sterling on July 5. One photographer who is a frequent contributor to WWOZ, Ryan Hodgson-Rigsbee, was there for the youth-led "Wave March for Justice" last Sunday (July 10). The procession proceeded peacefully from Wesley United Methodist Church to Louisiana's State Capitol Building. See his gallery from the march here. #blacklivesmatter

2) Head's up to the New Orleans music community-- the Music and Culture Coalition of New Orleans is seeking an organizer/community engagement professional. MACCNO’s mission is to empower the New Orleans music and cultural community through collective self-representation, advocating in the interests of cultural preservation, perpetuation, and positive economic impact. Find out more about this job on their website.

3) This week's WWOZ new music spotlight focuses on James Evans' Octuple Odyssey and their latest, The Golden Whippet of Algiers. It's a mish-mash of humor and impressive musicianship as trad jazz meets contemporary classical with this New Orleans-based 8-piece.

4) More New Orleans voices on NPR's 'First Listen' series this week: Aaron Neville's Apache is available to hear (and purchase) now. Apache is the first album he's primarily written himself and reflects a fresh, confident statement of who Neville is now. It nicely captures and resolves the duality that hangs around him: He's known in his solo career for heartrending ballads, but in his work with Allen Toussaint and with his brothers Art, Charles and Cyril for hard-driving funk. He's a man whose formidable figure and rocky past might come as a surprise once you've heard that gold-filigree voice. Hear it here on NPR.
