Description
Street Musicians in New Orleans - By Dora Sofia Caputo
Talented street musicians provide great entertainment to the tourists visiting beautiful New Orleans.
The music of New Orleans assumes various styles of music which have often borrowed from earlier traditions. New Orleans, Louisiana, is especially known for its strong association with jazz music, universally considered to be the birthplace of the genre.
NOLA knows a thing or two about blues too. Musical giants such as Walter “Wolfman” Washington, Dr. John, Irma Thomas and Professor Longhair have made major contributions to New Orleans’ bustling blues scene. The genre is adored so much in the city that the Jazz & Heritage Foundation hosts an annual Crescent City Blues & BBQ Festival that always features an all-star lineup.
A Southwest Louisiana staple that has found its way into the hearts (and ears) of many New Orleanians is Cajun-Zydeco music. The best way it can be described is music that will easily have you on your feet dancing.
