CONCERT RECAP: Ariel Pink’s Haunted Graffiti @ Tipitina’s Uptown NOLA 6/15/13
The best way to describe Saturday night’s Ariel Pink show at Tipitina’s would be to say that it was analagous to a musical gumbo. You take all the odds and ends left over from the week and throw them in a pot, and surprisingly enough when the water starts... more
RECAP: !!! @ Tipitina’s, New Orleans, 5/24/13
A modestly thin crowd at Tipitina’s got down hard last Friday night, but the music they were grooving to was far from the NOLA funk that usually fills those hallowed halls. !!! (pronounced “chk chk chk”) blasted through a tight, hour long set that showcased their distinct dance-punk stylings... more
CONCERT RECAP: Moon Taxi @ Tipitina’s Uptown, New Orleans, LA 5/16/13
Let me be the first to say, I am by no means a jam band connoisseur or even a casual fan at best. Bands like Umphrey's McGee, Widespread Panic, Phish, or even the Grateful Dead aren’t remotely part of my personal musical lexicon. To give you the extent... more
It’s Jazz Fest Time In New Orleans
The cubes are out, the late night grids are full and the time has come: It's Jazz Fest season in New Orleans! For those who can't make the trip, AXS TV (Ch. 340 on DirecTV) will broadcast the festival on television for the very first time from April 26th... more
CONCERT RECAP: Galactic @ Tipitina’s Uptown, NOLA 12/31/12
Photos by John Stephens / LMB NOLA To close out a monster year, Galactic rang in 2013 in the familiar, friendly and legendary confines of Tipitina's Uptown with a covers-heavy marathon show that took the packed house deep into the New Year after the ceremonial balloon drop. Right out of the... more

Live Music Blog’s Best of 2012: Concerts, Albums, Artists and More (PART ONE)
While there's still plenty of live music magic yet to be made, the end is near and 2012 will be in the rear view in five short weeks. Furthermore, December is generally a skinny month for studio releases (although Big Boi's Vicious Lies & Dangerous Rumors drops on 12/11) so... more
CONCERT RECAP: Afghan Whigs plus Wussy @ Tipitina’s Uptown, NOLA 10/19/12
It’s hard to believe The Afghan Whigs haven’t been back to New Orleans since the two-night benefit shows for Steve Myers in 1999 at the Shim Sham. I’ve heard many an awesome story from those shows, so I knew I’d be in for a treat. 1993’s Gentleman was the soundtrack... more
CONCERT RECAP: Dinosaur Jr. plus Shearwater @ Tipitina’s Uptown, NOLA 10/3/12
J and band are whole lot older and wiser than their younger day. Their music has stood the test of time and their new material has found a place in this new world of rock. Loud, powerful, and controlled chaos was the thoughts of the night and Dinosaur Jr. did... more
REVIEW / PHOTOS / VIDEO: Antibalas @ Tipitina’s 10/9/12
The animated horn-section ruthlessly twists the floor into a frenzy of flailing arms and swaying hips, while the hypnotizing keyboard work keeps the cadenced groove from breaking it’s trance. Easy comparisons to the afro-beat deity Fela Kuti and his groups are first to come to mind, but it’s the music’s... more

Jazz Fest Night Shows: Videos from Weekend 1
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=itsck33-IdU Grateful Feat @ Republic New Orleans - 4/27/12 || Photo by Jimmy GrottingWeekend 1 has been amazing thus far and perhaps even more jam-packed with late night goodness than ever with the addition of the Nolafunk Jazzfest Series and an embarrassment of live music riches on Friday and Saturday night.... more
Royal Potato Family Jazz Fest Artist Schedule
The Royal Potato Family imprint is always well-represented on the Jazz Fest late night scene and this year is certainly no exception.

Wild Magnolias Featuring Big Chief Bo Dollis and Big Chief Monk Boudreaux @ Tipitina’s 3/10/12
New Orleans is easily distracted. While eating at world-class restaurants, we talk about our next meal. During cherished celebrations like Jazz Fest and Mardi Gras, we continuously compare it to past years’ events to display our keen levels of appreciation. Yet on Saturday night at Tipitina’s, there was nothing but joy, gratitude... more
