Get Your Groove On at the Spotted Cat–Panorama Jazz Band

If you caught my performance of You Are My Sunshine a couple posts back, then you got a glimpse of the band that made even me look good–Panorama Jazz Band. This band plays nearly every Saturday night at the Spotted Cat in New Orlean’s fabulous Faubourg Marigny/Bywater district. Don’t miss it–the band or the neighborhood. Frenchmen Street (the home of the Spotted Cat and so many other great clubs) is one of my favorite hangout spots in Nawlins. Not planning a trip anytime soon? Well, you can still buy one of their CDs and dance around your living room.

And a big shout out to the magical city of New Orleans on the fifth anniversary of the day that bitch Katrina came to visit. Stay strong!

P.S. Here’s a performance I found on YouTube of the Panorama Jazz Band playing at the Spotted Cat just last month. Quality’s not great, but you get an idea of the spirit of the place and the spirit of the band. Plus this one features the accordion player front and center. ;-)
