First we'll check out Kermit Ruffins and the BBQ Swingers recorded live by WWOZ at the Dew Drop Jazz Hall in Mandeville, Louisiana. During the show, we stop by Kermit’s house in Treme for an interview about his musical upbringing. Along the way, Jazz Fest's Director of Programs, Marketing & Communications Scott Aiges talks about Sync Up, a conference that brings together top leaders from the international music festival industry. And as always we feed ourselves at the culinary crossroads — this week, it’s veal parmesan at Mona Lisa in the French Quarter.
