Good morning my funky people, and hello from New Orleans! I'm an uptown ruler this week! Jazzfest has been a funky good time so far, as expected. On today's show I'm featuring bands from the festival lineup, mostly from the smaller stages. Some have already played and the rest are rolling out over the next six days of the fest. Let's go get 'em!

good morning doctorjazz - as a doctor of jazz, you might be interested to know that Lakecia Benjamin nearly burned down the jazz tent on Thursday. Great quartet which included Zaccai Curtis on piano and EJ Strickland on drums. Ms. Benjamin brought so much energy and fire - a strong contender for best set of the festival so far.
