Tonight (not Saturday, as we reported in the Weekly Beat), the Tao Seeger Brass Band will perform at Tipitina’s. The band consists of members of the Preservation Hall community, and if their performance at Voodoo is any indication of what to expect, it will be a spirited, unconventional show. Here’s footage of Seeger with grandfather Pete Seeger and the Preservation Hall Jazz Band as they recorded “Blue Skies” for the Preservation Hall Jazz Band’s Preservation album.
