Mardi Gras Party on WRTI! March 4th, from 9 PM to Midnight

Take a trip to New Orleans with WRTI's J. Michael Harrison on Tuesday night! We're bringing NOLA directly to you in honor of Mardi Gras. Okay, so we don’t have the warm weather, the parades, or the fun cocktails…but we do have some of the best music from the Crescent City.

You'll hear music from some of New Orleans’ finest, like the Marsalis Family, Louis Prima, Irvin Mayfield, and, of course, Louis Armstrong.

There will also be music about, and inspired by, the birthplace of jazz. Be sure to join our second-line from 9 pm until midnight. We promise you'll feel the temperature rise as soon as you hear some good ol' New Orleans brass! Tuesday, March 4, 9 pm to midnight!
