¡Preservation Hall Jazz Band
Description
[Machine Translation] America's passionate spirit and chic! The spirit heard in the first original by a famous long-established band. PHJB is a popular boxed band from a long-established jazz house in the French Quarter, a tourist attraction in New Orleans. The band was formed in 1961 at the height of the civil rights movement to preserve and carry on the tradition of New Orleans jazz. This album is the first original album in the band's 50-year history, and was released in the U.S. in July to great acclaim. Produced by Jim James of My Morning Jacket, with whom the band has collaborated in the past, the album has made their name known to a wider fan base. PHJB, which is overwhelmingly popular among roots music fans, has also performed at Bonnaroo 2013, and is a symbol of the "revival" of New Orleans, the birthplace of Jazz, one of the three great Americana bands. The eight-member group, whose current members range in age from 36 to 80, has miraculously survived numerous natural disasters and continues to perform nightly in the area's second oldest jazz house, built around 1750. Rolling Stone magazine has praised the group as "the tradition and future of American music." 13 songs in all.
