Today, famed New Orleans venue The Howlin' Wolf announced that during the early morning of Friday, May 6 at 2:00 a.m. it'll welcome a 13-person ensemble to perform a Steely Dan tribute show.
The performance was originally put on during the 2018 edition of Brooklyn Comes Alive and then again during a late-night show during Jazz Fest 2019. It was slated to occur during Jazz Fest 2020 but was postponed to Oct. 14, 2021, which was postponed again to the current date – all tickets purchased for the postponed dates will be honored. Much like the 2019 performance, the show will coincide with the beginning of Jazz Fest's second weekend.
The tribute performance will be led by The Motet's keyboardist Joey Porter, and feature Lotus' guitarist Tim Palmieri, The Nth Power bassist Nate Edgar, Snarky Puppy/Ghost-Note percussionist Nate Werth, vocalist Lyle Divinsky, NOLA native saxophonist Bryan McNamara, along with seven former members of Turkuaz.
Tickets for the May 5 "(Technically early AM 5/6)" event are on sale now.
