Papa Mali’s Birthday Jam has added more special guests to its lineup. The event is slated for May 7 aboard the Riverboat Louis Armstrong in New Orleans and will feature an eclectic list of players joining Mali for a Big Easy style celebration.
Topping the lineup is the honoree’s band, The Papa Mali Trio, who will join Big Wally Ingram, Big Chief Monk Boudreaux, James Andrews, Billy Iuso, Marc Stone, Meschiya Lake, Kirk Joseph, Roger Lewis, Johnny Sansone, Sam Price, Casandra Faulconer, Russ Broussard and more for the one-day affair.
Riverboat Louis Armstrong will remain docked during the event for the convenience of the attendees and those who might arrive late or require an early departure. Additionally, by leaving the boat docked, collaborators and guests can easily mingle on board and sit in for a couple of tunes.
More guests are being added to the lineup daily. To stay up to date on the latest additions to the May 7 event, follow Papa Mali on Instagram.
