The Emerald Quintet, feauturing Skerik, Stanton Moore, Scott Metzger, Robert Walter, and Andy Hess, announce late-night show during Jazz Fest with special guest Erica Falls. The Quintet will play on May 1 in New Orleans, La. at One Eyed Jacks.
In 2019, Moore and Skerik celebrated the 20th anniversary of their collaboration on All Kooked Out, Stanton’s late-’90s debut solo album. Scott Metzger, Robert Walter, and Andy Hess then joined the band, now called Emerald Quintet.
In a recent Live for Live Music interview, Skerik said, "Stanton is my brother from another mother, and I love playing with him, working with him, especially rocking out. He’s got a jazz feel now, which is cool, but I love… I mean he is such a high-energy drummer and I have to have that, I have to have that. Where it’s just bashing, slamming… Just his ‘there’s no tomorrow’ kind of drumming, you know what I’m saying? We’ve got 20, 22 years of history of that onstage.”
Tickets for the late-night show are now available here.
