This group is for fans of the New Orleans music scene in and around NYC.

The group is also dedicated to Kermit Ruffins, New Orleans' Number One Ambassador of Cool. He keeps the New Orleans jazz tradition alive by reviving the halcyon days of the early Louis Armstrong era. He adds years of Brass Band experience and skill to that mix. Top it off with a some funk and a whole lotta fun, and you've got BBQ Swinging. All aboard?
