Satchmo SummerFest features local music with a focus on contemporary and traditional jazz and brass bands. The festival happens in New Orleans the first weekend of each August, coinciding with the anniversary of Louis Armstrong's birthday (August 4). This year, the festival is taking place between July 31 and August 2. Here, just a small sampling of the artists and scenes you'll be able to catch at the festival in 2015. See the full schedule.
