The New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Foundation presents the 2024 Jazz & Heritage Concert Series celebrating contemporary jazz at the George and Joyce Wein Jazz & Heritage Center! The series continues on Saturday, January 6 at 8pm CT with a performance from Stephen Lands.

Hailing from the city of Baton Rouge, Louisiana, Stephen Lands has been swaying stages, clubs, bars, museums, houses-of-worship, and studios the world over for more than a decade now. He’s got the kind of skill that can only be gained from working with great artists from all walks of life. His experience ranges from shows with R&B/gospel grammy-winner PJ Morton, doing festivals with the Preservation Hall Jazz Band, and tours through Europe with Swiss pianist and composer Florian Favre to studio sessions with the Black Keys, jamming in DC with Dave Grohl of the Foo Fighters, playing in big bands with Ellis, Jason, Branford, and Delfeayo Marsalis, and doing a tribute to David Bowie with Arcade Fire. Courage and care are his motivations for music and he’s got more than enough of both to give you a sonic fantasy.

Tickets are available for $10 at events.jazzandheritage.org. If you can't be there in person, WWOZ will be video streaming from the concert at wwoz.org/livevideo and on our Facebook page!
