NEW ORLEANS (AP) — Another eclectic mix musical acts — old and new, large and small and from a variety of genres — continues as the New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival rolls into its final weekend.
Chicago, the enduring pop-rock band founded in 1967 in the city of the same name, is among Friday evening’s closing acts on the 11 music stages at the Fair Grounds Race Course. Acts set for nearby stages include No Doubt, Rockin Dopsie and the Zydeco Twisters and New Orleans Gospel Soul Children.
The celebration focuses largely on Louisiana music, food and culture — with healthy dashes of other varieties of music. It takes place each year at the Fair Grounds Race Course on the last weekend of April and the first weekend in May.
