The temperatures are finally cooling off a bit, and that means it's time for Season 6 of Armstrong Park's "Jazz in the Park" series!  The free Thursday series re-started back on September 4, but there are still plenty of great acts in the coming weeks. The shows run from 4-8pm each Thursday.

This week features Russell Batiste and Friends & The Wild Tchoupitoulas Mardi Gras Indians, Mike Soulman Baptiste, and the Edna Karr High School Marching Band to the stage. October 2 will bring Cyril Neville’s Swamp Funk and the Joe Krown Trio featuring Russell Batiste & Walter “Wolfman” Washington to the stage.

The fall series runs through the end of October. Get out there and enjoy some of this great live, free, local music in one of New Orleans' most beautiful parks!
