Mark your calendar: on the weekend of October 16-18, we'll be partnering with the New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Foundation to present a virtual Crescent City Blues & BBQ Festival, both on the air and online. Our video team has recorded the past six festivals, and we'll be re-streaming some of our favorite sets.

You can watch for free on YouTube, Facebook, and wwoz.org; or, you can listen on the air at 90.7 FM in New Orleans or at wwoz.org/listen everywhere else.

Full details, including takeout food options from the regular festival food vendors, digital crafts area, and official festival merchandise at crescentcitybluesfest.com.
