Thomas Balzac's New Orleans Music & Art Channel - Invidious

Thomas Balzac's New Orleans Music & Art Channel

Here's some videos I recorded of the local New Orleans music and art scene, a very small slice of neighborhood musicians, artists and poets; including a few of my old shepherds Rosa & Sophie playing and swimming in the Mississippi River that fronts the Vieux Carré (or, today, "French Quarter" neighborhood) --where Louisiana began.

My YouTube links are the "Music & Art" section of an online newspaper I created in 1999 , "La Vieux Carré Times" located online at www.vieuxcarretimes.com . These videos are of club musicians & singers, street buskers, canvas-painters, poets and other artists of the French Quarter (or "La Vieux Carré" which means "the old square" in French).
