Jazzy Ash invites students to come along on a Crescent City inspired, jazzy music adventure with her band the Leaping Lizards. She’s a talented and prolific songwriter as well as a musical treasure hunter, highlighting traditional songs, rhythms and rhymes that have been handed down by African-American children, adults, and musicians for generations. The Riverboat concert features originals like “Throw Me Something Mista” that conjures the spirit of a Mardi Gras parade, as well as jazz standards like Louis Armstrong’s “Heebie Jeebies” in front of gorgeous projected images of New Orleans, Congo Square, the Louisiana bayou, and even a field of fireflies.
