The Original Pinettes Brass Band - Letter from the Porch
The world's only all female brass band, The Original Pinettes Brass Band was formed by Mr. Jefferey Herbert in 1991. The Original Pinettes Brass Band can be seen at many different venues, such as: The Jazz & Heritage Festival, The Satchmo Festival, The Essence Music Festival, and The French Quarter Festival, just to name a few. They also experienced traveling overseas when they performed in Istanbul, Izmir, and Ankara Turkey and Ascona Jazz Fest in Ascona, Switzerland. The band has very much in common with the other male brass bands around the city. The only difference being is the Original Pinettes are all females! The ladies gained more respect when they were crowned the winners of the 2013 Red Bull "Street Kings" brass band blowout competition when they beat three other male brass bands changing the name to Red Bull "Street QUEENS!" The ladies have also performed with Arcade Fire and Katy Perry.
Some of the ladies specialize in other careers, also. From college students to a computer tech, some of the ladies are mothers and wives. Nothing will get in the way of these ladies who consider one another sisters. "We're not blood related, we're love related...." says leader, Christie Jourdain.
Today, the band is still on a journey of becoming the best in the business and to take over this male dominant industry. The Original Pinettes Brass Band dream is to travel worldwide and to show everyone that music definitely is a universal language!

HaSizzle is the pulsating thump and the vivaciousness known as Bounce music. Never heard of him? Then you've probably never been to New Orleans. To save you the trip, I suggest turning on Drake's "Child's Play" to hear his voice being sampled. "She rode that like a soulja." But Drake's recognition is only the tip of the iceberg for HaSizzle, who's been making music for nearly 15 years."Bounce m...

Played a show in Hartford, CT with Sal in 2011? Such a talented dude!
Bravo 🎉❤
This man is a genius, here is some serious musicianship and ability. God bless New Orleans.
Say good-bye to Vernel Fournier.
My brothers job as a teenager was a busboy in Salaam restaurant in Chicago. There was a trio that played there. John Young ( piano) , Eddie Calhoun (bass) and Vernel Fournier (drums) . I would order bean soup and whole wheat toast for $2 and take a long time to eat it so I could listen and learn from these great musicians.
Jesus Gawd, da King really delivers here, goin all out during Covid. Showing the true spirit of the Nola sounds and how a drummer can carry a solo show. Folks this is the real deal ..as gr8 as it gets
Reminds me of "Me and My Bobbie Magee." Great lyrics and always enjoy Gina's singing and playing!
