Last month, the GRAMMYs launched ReImagined, "a new Web series melding the legacy of the GRAMMYs with the present and future. This interview- and performance-based series highlights contemporary artists revealing on how they were personally influenced by past GRAMMY-winning and/or -recognized songs and includes their own reimagined interpretations of the recording."

Here's the Brass-A-Holics "ReImagining" Paul Simon's "50 Ways To Leave Your Lover":

 

 

Two other New Orleans musicians are represented in the initial release of ReImagined videos: Mia Borders (Bridge Over Troubled Water) and Ivan Neville (Just The Way You Are). You can see all the ReImagined performance videos released so far here.

FWIW, the announcement described ReImagined as including an interview component; apparently those haven't been posted yet.
