Preservation Hall Jazz Band

These Preservation Hall artists appeared with other jazz and traditional music groups on a member of television specials featuring New Orleans and its music and have also appeared in many films, both American and foreign, documentaries and features.

Two standing-room-only engagements of the 1967 and 1968 Stanford Summer Festival in California and another sell-out performance at Philharmonic Hall in New York's 1968 Lincoln Center Festival brought the Band to increasing international attention. Following this they successfully captiveted the rock world with an impressive concert and repeat engagement at San Francisco's famous Fillmore West. The Band was honored in the fall of 1968 when asked to represent the United States at the "Cultural Olympics" during the Mexico City games.

Since then, it has been a steady climb to today's prominence. European and South American tours, sold-out summer tours which include every major festival in America, a public television special from Wolf Trap, the Super Bowl telecast from New Orleans, and much more. This will be the first time that the Band has traveled to Southeast Asia.

It took a little time to catch on, but now the shimmering music from Preservation Hall Jazz Band has captivated audiences clear around the world.
