Takin' It To The Streets host Action Jackson sits down with Edward Jackson III of TBC Brass Band. Jackson shares how TBC ("To Be Continued") got their name from a famous New Orleans musician, coming up out of the high school music programs and how the band first got together, playing on Bourbon and for the people coming out of Jazz Fest as high school students-- plus how they moved inside the gates to parades and on stage. Jackson also shares his take on the brass band scene of the last 15 years.

Hear it all below, plus a video from TBC's last performance at WWOZ on March 14, 2018. And, of course, check out TBC at Celebrations Hall every Wednesday night. More info, including all the latest Mardi Gras Indian and second line news, available at Takin' It To The Streets.
