It’s a big announcement day for Stanton Moore: The mighty Galactic drummer has detailed three unique performances at New Orleans, LA’s Toulouse Theatre during Jazz Fest 2024 featuring a long list of exciting collaborators from the Crescent City and beyond.

On Saturday, April 27th (technically early-a.m. 4/28), Stanton Moore will anchor a special New Orleans edition of The Funk Sessions, Live For Live Music‘s long-running series of funk blowouts that originated in Denver, CO in early 2019. Stanton will be joined for The Funk Sessions by Skerik, the enigmatic saxophonist known for his roles in Les Claypool projects like the Fearless Flying Frog Brigade; Eric Krasno, the lauded guitarist who works with Stanton in the Krasno/Moore Project; and Wil Blades, the revered organist out of San Francisco well-known to the Jazz Fest late-night crowd. This will mark the third time The Funk Sessions has made the trip from The Mile High City to the Big Easy.
