Preservation Hall Jazz Band With Allen Toussaint

All Jazzed Up

New Orleans meets the Northeast Kingdom when the Preservation Hall Jazz Band takes the stage with legendary pianist Allen Toussaint. Heralded as the "best jazz band in the land" by the San Francisco Examiner, this eight-member ensemble is steeped in the traditions of the Big Easy. That said, the horn-driven harmonies travel beyond the boundaries of the bayou, steering a rock-solid repertoire into uncharted musical waters. With a packed tour schedule that takes them from Coachella to Carnegie Hall, the group mixes new inspiration and classic influences into what is clearly a winning formula.
