In the Threadheads post, Chris Joseph writes that Threadhead will help Fatien Ensemble put out an album. At Jazz Fest, Fatien Ensemble was Ensemble Fatien. The question here is which is right? Did Joseph get it wrong or is Seguenon Kone not all that fussy about his band’s name? Both are equally possible in New Orleans, where bands treat their names with remarkable and irritating – from my point of view – indifference. Is it a function of living in a place where we’ve pretty much given up on the music so there’s little point in making sure anyone gets your name right? Or is it just our sloth catching up with us?

Whatever, good to know they’re recording.
