  • French Quarter Festin' 2024
    Apr 19 2024

    Join Steven at French Quarter Festival in New Orleans as he takes his boots-on-the-ground approach and talks with artists, vendors, and festival goers. Some of the great artists and musicians he was able to converse with include John “Papa” Gros, Amari Ansari, members of the Grammy nominated band The Rumble (Ari Teitel, Aurelien Barnes, Andriu Yanovski, and Chief Joseph Boudreaux Jr.), and our friend Blake Quick from The Quickening. Steven also spent some time with the fine vendors for Miss River restaurant, festival goers Michele and Tula, and the incomparable and wonderful Malik Mingo, host of Great Day Louisiana on CBS’s WWLTV.


    Also a special shoutout to The Big Easy Boys and their leader Rich Arnold who Steven had the honor of performing with at the festival.


    And as always thank you to Colton Gray from Flipped Car Marketing for all of his help with making these festival episodes happen.
