Very few touring bands are in New Orleans the week of Sept. 4, but a couple of touring comics will pass through town.

KEVIN LOUIS & THE PALM COURT JAZZ BAND

FRIDAY, SNUG HARBOR JAZZ BISTRO

For many years, trumpeter Kevin Louis, a St. Augustine High School and New Orleans Center for Creative Arts alumnus who went on to earn degrees in jazz performance from Oberlin Conservatory in Ohio and Queens College in New York, led the Friday night band at the Palm Court Jazz Café. The Decatur Street nightspot, which evoked a saloon of the early 20th century, served up traditional New Orleans jazz and food under the auspices of host Nina Buck. Meanwhile, Nina’s husband George Buck released 1,400 recordings of traditional jazz and other genres through Jazzology, GHB and his other record labels.
