This episode, titled "Rhythm Of Life," takes a look at New Orleans as a city filled with young musicians, who embrace the traditions here, and keep them alive by making them their own. Sometimes it's a matter of taking old music in a new direction. Sometimes it's playing new music in an old style. Or even creating something nobody has ever imagined before. This week on New Orleans Calling, we take a listen to their music and their stories.
